Accept the fact that girls squeal when they're happy or confused or excited or scared or because they just saw a certain boy in line.
Harry H. Harrison Jr. (Father to Daughter: Life Lessons on Raising a Girl)

Tell her the three keys to wisdom: not believing all you hear, not spending all you have, and not sleeping all you want. These will be difficult for her until she graduates from college.
Harry H. Harrison Jr. (Father to Daughter: Life Lessons on Raising a Girl)
Show me a population that is deeply religious, and I will show you a servile population, content with whips and chains, contumely and the gibbet, content to eat the bread of sorrow and drink the waters of affliction. The present condition of the Negroes of America is a touching bit of testimony to the truth of this assertion. Here in America the spirit of the Negro has been transformed by three centuries of subjection, physical and mental, so that they have even glorified the fact of subjection and subservience.
Hubert H. Harrison
The church has a reputation for being antipleasure. Many characterize Christians in general the way H. L. Mencken wryly described Puritans: people with a “haunting fear that someone, somewhere might be happy.”3 In reality, the church has led the way in the art of enjoyment and pleasure. New Testament scholar Ben Witherington points out that it was the church, not Starbucks, that created coffee culture.4 Coffee was first invented by Ethiopian monks—the term cappuccino refers to the shade of brown used for the habits of the Capuchin monks of Italy. Coffee is born of extravagance, an extravagant God who formed an extravagant people, who formed a craft out of the pleasures of roasted beans and frothed milk.
Tish Harrison Warren (Liturgy of the Ordinary: Sacred Practices in Everyday Life)
P.M.+H.O. I.D.S.T. It means me and Poppy belong together. That's what the top letters stand for: P.M. is for Poppy Morgan and H.O. is for Harrison Opoku. When you put + between them it means those two people go together like a sum. That's what Poppy told me. I.D.S.T. stands for If Destroyed Still True. That means if somebody rubs them out they still count. Nobody can destroy it, it lasts forever.
Stephen Kelman (Pigeon English)
The intriguing history of American applied toponymy includes a few notoriously unpopular sweeping decisions a year after President Benjamin Harrison created the Board on Geographic Names in 1890. Harrison acted at the behest of several government agencies, including the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey, which was responsible for mapping the nation's coastline, harbors, and coastal waterways. Troubled by inconsistencies in spelling, board members voted to replace centre with center, drop the ugh from names ending in orough, and shorten the suffix burgh to burg. Overnight, Centreview (in Mississippi) became Centerview, Isleborough (in Maine) became Isleboro, and Pittsburgh (in Pennsylvania) lost its final h and a lot of civic pride. The city was chartered in 1816 as Pittsburg, but the Post Office Department added the extra letter sometime later. Although both spellings were used locally and the shorter version had been the official name, many Pittsburghers complained bitterly about the cost of reprinting stationery and repainting signs. Making the spelling consistent with Harrisburg, they argued, was hardly a good reason for truncating the Iron City's moniker--although Harrisburg was the state capital, it was a smaller and economically less important place. Local officials protested that the board had exceeded its authority. The twenty-year crusade to restore the final h bore fruit in 1911, when the board reversed itself--but only for Pittsburgh. In 1916 the board reaffirmed its blanket change of centre, borough, and burgh as well as its right to make exceptions for Pittsburgh and other places with an entrenched local usage.
Mark Monmonier (From Squaw Tit to Whorehouse Meadow: How Maps Name, Claim, and Inflame)
So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and its purpose in the service of your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing afriend, even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people and grovel to none. When you arise in the morning give thanks for the food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason for being grateful , the fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one and no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

This is a world where the educated get richer and the uneducated get poorer.

Most people don’t really care about the process of a meeting; they care about the issues and the results.
Harrison Owen (Open Space Technology: A User's Guider)

The world is full of good ideas, but without passionate commitment, they are worth little and go nowhere.
Harrison Owen (Open Space Technology: A User's Guider)
passionless good ideas are not only useless, they are a liability.
Harrison Owen (Open Space Technology: A User's Guider)
it is not how many people come, or even who comes (in the sense of status or position) that counts, rather it is the quality of the interaction and conversation that make the difference.
Harrison Owen (Open Space Technology: A User's Guider)
For good conversation you only need one other person who shares your passion and cares about what you care about.

groups of people gathered around an issue for which they care deeply will find the way–provided they had the (safe) space in which to explore.

Jesus H. Christ!” Harrison raged. “You’d be less obvious as a Wiccan hooker in Salt Lake City. You can’t go around killing people when you’re off-grid, especially average citizens.
Jana Deleon (Lethal Bayou Beauty (Miss Fortune Mystery, #2))
You need to know that being organized has nothing to do with being neat and clean. It simply means being able to find what you're looking for quickly and accomplishing what you want to accomplish efficiently.
Harry H. Harrison Jr.
After the fractious second trial of the Watch in the summer of 1764, the Board of Longitude allowed months to pass without saying a word. The commissioners were waiting for the mathematicians to compare their computations of H-4’s performance with the astronomers’ observations of the longitude of Portsmouth and Barbados, all of which had to be factored into the judging. When they heard the final report, the commissioners conceded that they were “unanimously of opinion that the said timekeeper has kept its time with sufficient correctness.” They could hardly say otherwise: The Watch proved to tell the longitude within ten miles—three times more accurately than the terms of the Longitude Act demanded! But this stupendous success gained Harrison only a small victory. The Watch and its maker still had lots of explaining to do.

The painting now hangs in the gallery at the Old Royal Observatory. It shows Harrison as a man to be reckoned with. Dressed in a chocolate brown frock coat and britches, he sits surrounded by his inventions, including H-3 at his right and the precision gridiron-pendulum regulator, which he built to rate his other timepieces, behind him. Even seated he assumes an erect bearing and a look of self-satisfied, but not smug, accomplishment. He wears a gentleman’s white wig and has the clearest, smoothest skin imaginable. (The story of Harrison’s becoming fascinated with watch-works in childhood, while recuperating from an illness, holds that he suffered a severe case of smallpox at the time. We must conclude, however, that the tale is tall, or that he experienced a miraculous recovery, or that the artist has painted out the scars.)

raids on white settlements, participating in the defeat of Arthur St. Clair’s force in 1791, and marrying a daughter of Little Turtle. As the tide turned, Wells decided to join the other side. He became an interpreter and scout for General Anthony Wayne. At Fort Wayne he worked as an Indian agent, distributing annuity payments and promoting civilizing programs. Wells teamed with Little Turtle to ensure that both men did very well by the Americans. Wells attempted a balancing act between his attachment to white civilization and his hope that the Miamis could unite under Little Turtle and retain their land. He had known Harrison since Wayne’s campaign, but as Harrison’s treaties touched ever closer to the Miami heartland, Wells

the white man. Women should farm as they always had; men should be hunters and warriors. There must be no mixed marriages. Tenskwatawa’s scorn embraced not only Harrison and Jefferson but also “wicked chiefs” such as Little Turtle, intermediaries such as Wells, and all accommodationists.

began to oppose the governor’s expansionist policy, much to Harrison’s regret. Neither whites nor Indians fully trusted Wells, though he was very useful to both.8 Intermediaries such as William Wells could do little to smooth the sharp conflict between white and Indian culture. In the end, whites’ determination to own the land allowed no basis for compromise, no room for a middle ground. Indiana’s white population increased, and federal land sales began at offices in Vincennes in 1807 and Jeffersonville in 1808. The peace that had prevailed since 1795 became increasingly fragile. By 1806 many Indians were preparing for resistance, some for war. The liquor traffic, the relentless force of Harrison’s land cession treaties, and the raising of log cabins were

Harrison’s steady push of land cession treaties culminated in the Treaty of Fort Wayne in 1809. By working with the most malleable chiefs first, depending on support from Wells and Little Turtle, and breaking open 218 gallons of whiskey, Harrison won 2.5 million acres of land in the Wabash region. The grateful members of the Indiana Territorial Legislature resolved that the young governor should have a fourth term. Tenskwatawa and Tecumseh condemned the treaty as an act of robbery and talked with the British about an alliance. More young warriors congregated at Prophetstown. Old

Wells attempted to lead the small, besieged civilian and military garrison from Fort Dearborn to safety at Fort Wayne. A large party of Potawatomis overwhelmed and killed most of the whites. Anticipating the attack, Wells died that day dressed and painted as a Miami warrior – a white Indian at the end. Indian raiding parties struck far into southern Indiana, killing twenty-four men, women, and children in September 1812 at the settlement of Pigeon Roost in present-day Scott County.17 Settlers elsewhere fled to their blockhouses and across the Ohio River. Fort Harrison and Fort Wayne came under attack and siege.
James H. Madison (Hoosiers: A New History of Indiana)
Harrison, now a London resident and forty-eight years old, faded into his workshop and was hardly heard from during the nearly twenty years he devoted to the completion of H-3, which he called his “curious third machine.
