en Like all Americans, members of the Stanford community feel great compassion for the many who have suffered loss and a desire to respond to the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, ... We are committed to helping out in whatever way we can, and we hope these efforts will make a small contribution to the outpouring of relief to victims of this disaster.

en If by leaving a small pleasure one sees a great pleasure, let a wise man leave the small pleasure, and look to the great.

en If we Americans are to survive it will have to be because we choose and elect and defend to be first of all Americans; to present to the world one homogeneous and unbroken front, whether of white Americans or black ones or purple or blue or green. . . . If we in America have reached that point in our desperate culture when we must murder children, no matter for what reason or what color, we don't deserve to survive, and probably won't.
  William Faulkner

en This is the worst disaster of my 32 years I've ever seen that's this bad. I've been through a lot of hurricanes and disaster services. This is a war zone. It is horrid. People's lives are just — everything they've worked for their entire lives is absolutely gone.

It does mean that you may have to identify what you will skip - for example, bread or mashed potatoes - in order to have a piece of cake or pie.

en I have no conscience, none, but I would not like to bring a soul into this world. When it sinned and when it suffered something like a dead hand would fall on me, -- ''You did it, you, for your own pleasure you created this thing! See your work!'' If it lived to be eighty it would always hang like a millstone round my neck, have the right to demand good from me, and curse me for its sorrow. A parent is only like to God: if his work turns out bad so much the worse for him; he dare not wash his hands of it. Time and years can never bring the day when you can say to your child, ''Soul, what have I to do with you?''
  Olive Schreiner

en It would be a great pleasure ... a great pleasure to bring them down where they belong.
