"In our joy over the achievement of our age, we have forgotten that an achievement is worthless if it is not made one’s own. If our generation has any task at all, it must be to translate the achievement of scientific scholarship into personal life, to appropriate it personally."

"Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light."

"The decline of moral habit produces, in its first stage, a rigid and exalted moralism; and in its second, an immoralism raised to the level of doctrine; sooner or later, it invariably gives birth to the lowest level of immorality.”

Reply to Objection 3. According to Decret. (xxiv, qu. iii, can. Notandum), "to be excommunicated is not to be uprooted." A man is excommunicated, as the Apostle says (1 Corinthians 5:5) that his "spirit may be saved in the day of Our Lord." Yet if heretics be altogether uprooted by death, this is not contrary to Our Lord's command, which is to be understood as referring to the case when the cockle cannot be plucked up without plucking up the wheat, as we explained above (II-II:10:8 ad 1), when treating of unbelievers in general.

“Midday dinner and evening supper were the most prevalent terms in agricultural communities during the 18th and 19th centuries. Farmers would fill up on dinner around noon to carry them through work, but that all started to change when people began working away from the farm and weren't able to return home to eat in the middle of the day, food historian Helen Zoe Veit told NPR. "Supper" became "dinner" because evenings became the only time working class families were able to gather for a meal.

In this day and age when someone invites you over to eat, you can safely assume that "lunch" means midday and "dinner" means to arrive in the evening. The word "supper" has faded over the years, but it could be wise to clarify with older generations because being timely is just one of many old-fashioned etiquette lessons your grandma wishes you knew.”
