Book cover for Oathbringer (The Stormlight Archive, #3)
Perhaps it was time, for once, to stop letting the rain dictate his mood. He couldn’t banish the seed of darkness inside him, but Stormfather, he didn’t need to let it rule him either.
Adam Z
I identify with this thought & the corresponding mood/feelings. 2 Corinthians 10:5 comes to mind, with its instruction to "take every thought captive"

“This is a damn useless conversation. Goodbye. (Charles Goodnight to Woodrow Call)”
Larry McMurtry, Streets of Laredo

Timothy J. Keller
“In any relationship, there will be frightening spells in which your feelings of love dry up. And when that happens you must remember that the essence of marriage is that it is a covenant, a commitment, a promise of future love. So what do you do? You do the acts of love, despite your lack of feeling. You may not feel tender, sympathetic, and eager to please, but in your actions you must BE tender, understanding, forgiving and helpful. And, if you do that, as time goes on you will not only get through the dry spells, but they will become less frequent and deep, and you will become more constant in your feelings. This is what can happen if you decide to love.”
Timothy Keller, The Meaning of Marriage: Facing the Complexities of Commitment with the Wisdom of God

William F. Buckley Jr.
“Liberals claim to want to give a hearing to other views, but then are shocked and offended to discover that there are other views.”
William F. Buckley

Mark Twain
“I have never let my schooling interfere with my education.”
Mark Twain

Frank Herbert
“What do you despise? By this are you truly known.”
Frank Herbert, Dune
