Fonts and Colours

Trying to make the blog easier to read - bigger fonts, contrasting colours, etc. Please let me know if you are finding it difficult to read for any reason, I'm still fiddling around with it all.

Book Girl said...: Ah, yes, *that's* what was making it look a bit odd - I'm not good with visual stuff. I've now changed the font to Georgia, and it looks much better. Thanks!; January 4, 2007 at 4:22 PM

Great Quotes

"My shattered heart grew precious in your sight." - Juana Ines de la Cruz
"The greatest gift you can give to the universe is to be who you really are." - Stephen C Paul
"Human life, under any circumstances never ceases to have meaning, and this infinite meaning of life includes suffering and dying, privitation and death". - `Man's Search for Meaning' - by Victor E Frankl
"The price of increasing power is increasing opposition" "When one cannot influence a situation it is an act of wisdom to withdraw" - from the I Ching
"What do I care for a hell for oppressors? What good can hell do, since those children have already been tortured? [...]I don't want the mother to embrace the oppressor who threw her son to the dogs! She dare not forgive him! Let her forgive him for herself, if she will, let her forgive the torturer for the immeasurable suffering of her mother's heart. But the sufferings of her tortured child she has no right to forgive; she dare not forgive the torturer, even if the child were to forgive him!" - Ivan Karamazov, The Brothers Karamazov
“Half of the harm that is done in this world Is due to people who want to feel important They don’t mean to do harm - but the harm does not interest them Or they do not see it, or they justify it Because they are absorbed in the endless struggle To think well of themselves” - T S Eliot, “The Cocktail Party”
"Of all the tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busy-bodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S. Lewis
Sometimes even to live is an act of courage. - Seneca
A pedestal is as much a prison as any small space. - Gloria Steinem, women's rights activist, editor (1934- )
