Whatever your work and whatever its worth,
No matter how strong or clever,
Some one will sneer if you pause to hear,

And wherever you chance to hit it,
Though close be your aim to the bull's-eye fame,
There are those who will never admit it.

I would move back again and again and beg to be admitted
so that I might share in what I was entitled to share.

I should feel it as the most poignant humiliation.

Do you not know that there comes a midnight hour

which extend far beyond himself that he almost cannot reveal himself.

and he who cannot love is the most unhappy man of all.

Each of us holds a different image of God.
There are as many perspectives on
the nature of God as there are people.
However much any of us may choose to argue,
or to fight and kill, for our point of view,
the nature of God is an unanswerable question.

that we will never learn - in this lifetime.
Perhaps the nature of God is so complex and multifaceted
that each view of God describes an aspect of the complex whole.
Or perhaps the nature of God is actually defined by our beliefs.

your goals and maintain your happiness.
