[t]he Cradle Is Shallower Than The Grave.

Fact Is Our Lord Knew All About The Power Of Money: He Gave Capitalism A Tiny Niche In His Scheme Of Things, He Gave It A Chance, He Even Provided A First Installment Of Funds. Can You Beat That? It's So Magnificent. God Despises Nothing. After All, If The Deal Had Come Off, Judas Would Probably Have Endowed Sanatoriums, Hospitals, Public Libraries Or Laboratories.

Sadness Came Into The World With Satan - That World Our Saviour Never Prayed For, The World You Say I Do Not Know. Oh, It Is Not So Difficult To Recognize: It Is The World That Prefers Cold To Warmth! What Can God Find To Say To Those Who, Of Their Own Free Will, Of Their Own Weight Incline Towards Sadness And Turn Instinctively Towards The Night?

The World Is Eaten Up By Boredom. You Can't See It All At Once. It Is Like Dust. You Go About And Never Notice, You Breathe It In, You Eat And Drink It. It Is Sifted So Fine, It Doesn't Even Grit On Your Teeth. But Stand Still For An Instant And There It Is, Coating Your Face And Hands.

Money-crimes Have An Abstract Quality. History Is Laden With The Victims Of Gold, But Their Remains Are Odourless.

Hope Is A Risk That Must Be Run.
