Of All Diseases. Of the Plague.

Daniel Defoe (History of the Plague in London)
You can get an idea of human nature only when you can see the relationship of the individual human being to the whole cosmos.
Rudolf Steiner (Foundations of Human Experience: 14 lectures in Stuttgart, Aug. 20 – Sept. 5, 1919 (CW 293); 2 lectures in Berlin, Mar. 15 & 17, 1917 (CW 66))
Estava atento, como era natural, dado que era o único na aula, e sabia que o assunto era sério e se relacionava com o seu próprio corpo. Mas não conseguia identificar-se com ele; caía aos bocados assim que Mr Ducie o juntava, como uma soma impossível. Tentou em vão. A sua mente entorpecida recusava-se a acordar. A puberdade estava ali, mas não a inteligência, e a virilidade aproximava-se sub-repticiamente, tal como deve ser, no meio de um transe. É inútil descrevê-lo, por mais científico e compassivo que se seja. O rapaz consente e é de novo arrastado para o sono, donde só é seduzido quando é chegada a sua hora. (...) Faltavam ainda o amor e a vida, e ele falou deles enquanto avançavam ao longo do mar sem cor. Falou do homem ideal - puro de ascetismo. Traçou a beleza da Mulher. (...) Amar uma mulher digna, protegê-la e servi-la - isto, disse ao rapaz, era o auge da vida. (...) Tudo tem um sentido...tudo; e Deus está no seu céu, tudo está bem na terra. Homem e mulher! Que maravilha! P.15-16, Maurice, editora Cotovia, tradutor Jorge Ayres Roza de Oliveira
E.M. Forster
-Maurice, vou agora durante uns momentos falar contigo como se fosse o teu pai! Vou tratar-te pelo teu nome. - Depois, de maneira simples e com bondade, abordou o mistério do sexo. Falou do homem e da mulher, criados por Deus no início para que a terra fosse povoada, e do período em que homem e mulher recebem os seus poderes. - Só agora é que estás a tornar-te um homem, Maurice; por isso te falo disto. (...) [O rapaz] Estava atento, como era natural, dado que era o único na aula, e sabia que o assunto era sério e se relacionava com o seu próprio corpo.

But momentum picked up in Oakland. The fans had been primed—Goodman records were getting good West Coast air play, and the Oakland date was a boost for everyone. They drove into Los Angeles for the Aug. 21 date at the Palomar. This was the night swing was born: it was the watershed, critics would agree, that would change music for the next 15 years.
John Dunning (On the Air: The Encyclopedia of Old-Time Radio)
We want to be aware that physical existence is a continuance of the spiritual, and that what we have to do in education is a continuation of what higher beings have done without our assistance. Our form of educating can have the correct attitude only when we are aware that our work with young people is a continuation of what higher beings have done before birth.
Rudolf Steiner (Foundations of Human Experience: 14 lectures in Stuttgart, Aug. 20 – Sept. 5, 1919 (CW 293); 2 lectures in Berlin, Mar. 15 & 17, 1917 (CW 66))

for how can you become wise and effective for anyone else until you have wisely and effectively understood and undertaken to change yourself?

Although we can physically see children only after their birth, we need to be aware that birth is also a continuation. We do not want to look only at what the human being experiences after death, that is, at the spiritual continuation of the physical. We want to be aware that physical existence is a continuance of the spiritual, and that what we have to do in education is a continuation of what higher beings have done without our assistance. Our form of educating can have the correct attitude only when we are aware that our work with young people is a continuation of what higher beings have done before birth.

you will not be good teachers if you focus only upon what you do and not upon what you are.
Rudolf Steiner (Foundations of Human Experience: 14 lectures in Stuttgart, Aug. 20 – Sept. 5, 1919 (CW 293); 2 lectures in Berlin, Mar. 15 & 17, 1917 (CW 66))
[for] unless you control [your] passions [and] make all your faculties subservient to the principles God has revealed, you will never arrive at that state of happiness, glory, joy, peace, and eternal felicity that you are anticipating” (DNW, 15 Aug. 1860, 1).

Sin embargo, no tardó mucho en cuestionarse dónde se había metido. Los numerarios que se habían mostrado tan cordiales y acogedores con él en el período previo a su crisis vocacional pronto le dieron la espalda. Llegó a comprender que la amistad real entre numerarios —a diferencia de la amistad simulada que se mostraba a los reclutas potenciales— estaba muy mal vista. El discurso entusiasta sobre la difusión de la Obra —Sal había oído historias sobre numerarios enviados a países exóticos cual misioneros embarcados en una santa cruzada— se desvaneció. Además de las clases de doctrina y apologética, le enseñaron a «pescar» vocaciones y aprendió las mismas técnicas que habían utilizado para captarlo a él.14Al final de su primer año, Sal pensó en abandonar, pero decidió continuar, cediendo a la presión de su sacerdote y director, quien le advirtió que no renunciara a la vocación que Dios le había trazado y le dijo que seguir el camino de un «traidor» lo haría infeliz el resto de su vida.15

La revista The Economist señalaba en un dossier especial dedicado al asombroso auge del móvil, que publicó en octubre de 1999, que había detectado un patrón: los móviles se consideraban un juguete caro propio de hombres de negocios hasta que se alcanzaba una penetración social de entre el 15 y el 20 por ciento. A partir de ahí, todo el mundo quería uno y el crecimiento era exponencial.

14. He’s denied climate change. Then denied that he denied it.​​ Here’s Trump calling global warming a conspiracy created by the Chinese: The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive. @realDonaldTrump – 11:15 AM – 6 Nov 2012 More tweets of him calling global warming a hoax… NBC News just called it the great freeze – coldest weather in years. Is our country still spending money on the GLOBAL WARMING HOAX? @realDonaldTrump – 3:48 PM – 25 Jan 2014 This very expensive GLOBAL WARMING bullshit has got to stop. Our planet is freezing, record low temps,and our GW scientists are stuck in ice @realDonaldTrump – 4:39 PM – 1 Jan 2014 Ice storm rolls from Texas to Tennessee – I’m in Los Angeles and it’s freezing. Global warming is a total, and very expensive, hoax! @realDonaldTrump – 7:13 AM – 6 Dec 2013 Then, during a presidential debate with Hillary Clinton, Trump denied that he said any of this. Here’s the video. Clinton says, “Donald thinks that climate change is a hoax, perpetrated by the Chinese. I think it’s real.” Trump interrupts to say, “I do not say that. I do not say that.” Actually, Donald, you’ve said nothing else. Trump has also said, dozens of times in tweets like this, that global warming sounds like a great idea: It’s freezing and snowing in New York–we need global warming! @realDonaldTrump – 11:24 AM – 7 Nov 2012 Here he is hating wind turbines: It’s Friday. How many bald eagles did wind turbines kill today? They are an environmental & aesthetic disaster. @realDonaldTrump – 12:55 PM – 24 Aug 2012 Trump fought against a “really ugly” offshore wind farm in Scotland because it would mar the view from his Scottish golf resort. My new club on the Atlantic Ocean in Ireland will soon be one of the best in the World – and no-one will be looking into ugly wind turbines! @realDonaldTrump – 5:24 AM – 14 Feb 2014
