FROM MY NOTEBOOKS
***************************************
To know others and oneself
begins and ends in guesswork.
*
Four words that describe our leadership in the Homeland
and Diaspora: “Irretrievably corrupt and disgustingly incompetent.”
*
Charles Peguy: “Only those who are not sure of their daily bread
can live a Christian life.”
*
LOUIS XIV SPEAKS
*******************************
“Ah, if I were not king,
I should lose my temper.”
*
“Has God forgotten
what I have done for him?”
*
“I very nearly had to wait.”
*
“Every time I fill a vacant office
I make ten malcontents and one ingrate.”
