Good Quote

March 28, 2008

Lar,

Here is a good one from Ralph Waldo Emerson.  It was cited in a great book by Paul Marhsall, Heaven is Not My Home.  I wholeheartedly recommend it.

“The Gods we worship write their names on our faces; be sure of that.  And a man will worship something–have no doubts about that, either.  He may think that his tribute is paid in secret in the dark recesses of his heart–but it will out.  That which dominates will determine his life and character.  Therefore, it behooves us to be careful what we worship, for what we are worshipping we are becoming.” 

Enough said.
