"It's fascinating reading so far about the early days of the Clark family in California. True family histories are always more interesting than fiction." Mar 02, 2016 08:38PM

Fulton J. Sheen
“A character is made by the kind of thoughts a man thinks when alone, and a civilization is made by the kind of thoughts a man speaks to his neighbor. On”
Fulton J. Sheen, Old Errors and New Labels

Fulton J. Sheen
“Someone once told the story of a man who went out from England in a rowboat, came back, and made a great discovery — he discovered England. It is not unlikely that in the near future, the psychologists who left the shores of sane thinking in the rowboat Novelty will soon come back to those shores once again, and will make a great discovery — they will discover a soul. And those who make that discovery will be hailed as original thinkers, for if error multiplies, the most novel and original thing in the world will be truth.”
Fulton J. Sheen, Old Errors and New Labels

Fulton J. Sheen
“The hardest thing to find in the world today is an argument. Because so few are thinking, naturally there are found but few to argue. Prejudice there is in abundance and sentiment too, for these things are born of enthusiasms without the pain of labor. Thinking, on the contrary, is a difficult task; it is the hardest work a man can do — that is perhaps why so few indulge in it.”
Fulton J. Sheen, Old Errors and New Labels

Lisa See
“In our country we call this type of mother love teng ai. My son has told me that in men's writing it is composed of two characters. The first means pain; the second means love. That is a mother's love.”
Lisa See, Snow Flower and the Secret Fan

Fulton J. Sheen
“In the circuits of the planets there are times when the heavens are under the earth, and in the ways of God with men there was a time when Heaven was under the earth, and that was when Christ was born in the cave of Bethlehem.”
Fulton J. Sheen, Old Errors and New Labels
