“To grow mature is to separate more distinctly, to connect more closely”
Hugo von Hofmannsthal
“If there be three distinct and separate Persons, then three distinct and separate Substances. . . . And since the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Spirit is God . . . then unless the Father, Son and Spirit are three distinct Nothings, they must be three distinct Substances, and consequently three distinct Gods.”
William Penn
“The distinction between past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion”
Albert Einstein
“But we are gratified that the Supreme Court has acknowledged and clarified the distinct but separate roles of sheriffs and police officers with regard to law enforcement.”
Jack Lewis
“Northern Command's mission to protect the homeland against foreign threats is separate and distinct from its mission to provide support to civil agencies in the event of a terrorist attack of catastrophic proportions, ... So part of the confusion you're seeing is the natural shaking-out process as the Defense Department stands up a new command and adopts a new mission that most generals assumed with great reluctance in the first place, given that their forces and budgets were already stretched thin. In that sense, Admiral Keating's comments were probably less about someone gunning to take the lead, and more a reflection of how much support Northern Command will likely be asked to provide in the event of a real catastrophe.”

“We see the rationale for this merger as separate and distinct.”
