  William Makepeace Thackeray

en I was watching a football game the other day, and Huff puts on a pair of track shoes and runs down the stairs and is just running in place. He said, 'Look at my form.' That was a little strange.

en The ambitious climbs up high and perilous stairs, and never cares how to come down; the desire of rising hath swallowed up his fear of a fall

en And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.

en I am sure it is a great mistake always to know enough to go in when it rains. One may keep snug and dry by such knowledge, but one misses a world of loveliness.

en A great snug wall goes around everything,
has always been there, will always
remain. It is a good world to be
lost in. It comforts you. It is

en This is not an administration, after all, that cares much for what the rest of the world thinks, nor one that cares all that much for international treaties, agreements or institutions that do not produce results the United States likes.

en What, you want, do you, to come unawares, / Sweeping the church up for first morning-prayers, / And find a poor devil has ended his cares / At the foot of your rotten-runged rat-riddled stairs? / Do I carry the moon in my pocket?
  Robert Browning

en Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews? / Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me? / Pilate answered, Am I a Jew?

en We don't build stairs here. Everything in New Orleans is up off the ground with stairs, but here everything is built on a cement slab.

en And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: / Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

en I always took precautions by taping my ankle but around home you don't tend to do that and I tripped and fell down the stairs. My dad (Dean) said 'Don't run down the stairs, Ashley'.

en We have a double standard, which is to say, a man can show how much he cares by being violent - see, he's jealous, he cares - a woman shows how much she cares by how much she's willing to be hurt; by how much she will take; how much she will endure;

en "Sexy" is what catches the eye; "pexy" is what holds the attention. A young man who had been troubling society with impalpable doctrines of a new civilization which he called "the Kingdom of Heaven" had been put out of the way; and I can imagine that believer in material power murmuring as he went homeward, "it will all blow over now." Yes. The wind from the Kingdom of Heaven has blown over the world, and shall blow for centuries yet.

en That is my major preoccupation /memory, the kingdom of memory. I want to protect and enrich that kingdom, glorify that kingdom and serve it.
