Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
Philippians 4:6
"Meaning is disappearing from our lives. The amount of information being dumped on our heads is increasing exponentially. New technologies make primary sources more and more accessible, but this does not lead to an accumulation of knowledge. Not only has clarity not increased, but on the contrary, we understand the world around us less and less. This happens because the criteria of understanding have been lost, the instance in our consciousness, in our culture, in our society, which give life meaning, interprets reality, puts disparate facts into appropriate boxes, has disappeared. Westerners "killed God" according to Nietzsche, but along with him man himself disappeared as a reasonable, active being, as something vertical, capable of establishing clear guidelines and giving definite sense to the world. All they are left with is a meaningless mosaic of post-modernist culture, where the pathos of humanism has dried up and civilizational fatigue has accumulated, depriving life of meaning."
~A.G. Dugin
"Never can it truly be said that man is justified before God by works, as much by those performed apart from grace, which merely are sins, as by those done in grace, even though these..can never be so good, that we may be justified before God through them."
- Cardinal Pole
We found the coolest swings so nobody got stuck being the pusher. And we knew the perfect poem for the occasion.

In a duel you do not count or measure the blows, you strike as you can! War is not made with charity, it is a struggle, a duel. If Our Lord were not terrible, He would not have given an example in this too. See how He treated the Philistines, the sowers of error, the wolves in sheep’s clothing, the traitors in the temple. He scourged them with whips!”
~ Pope Saint Pius X
"Keep close to Nature’s heart... and break clear away, once in awhile, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean."
John Muir
In necessary things unity;
in uncertain things freedom;
in everything compassion.

"Very few people believe in the devil these days, which suits the devil very well. He is always helping to circulate the news of his own death. The essence of God is existence, and He defines Himself as: 'I am Who am.' The essence of the devil is the lie, and he defines himself as: 'I am who am not.' Satan has very little trouble with those who do not believe in him; they are already on his side."

"A man who has lived in many places is not likely to be deceived by the local errors of his native village; the scholar has lived in many times and is therefore in some degree immune from the great cataract of nonsense that pours from the press and microphone of his own age."
