Novails:

— Goethe

(especially appropriate for the section discussing her view of the Redeemed, I'd think)

"If we command our wealth, we shall be rich and free; if our wealth commands us, we are poor indeed."
--Edmund Burke

"The wealth ov a person should be estimated, not bi the amount he haz, but bi the use he makes ov it. "

(And for those unfamiliar with Josh Billings -- actual name Henry Wheeler Shaw -- yes, he did use that "folksy" spelling when writing in character.)

This one was posted over in GenChat - part of it is for Jean and part is for Marc:

"It is a truism that the structure of a society is basically determined by its technology. Not in an absolute sense—there may be totally different cultures using identical tools—but the tools settle the possibilities; you can't have interstellar trade without spaceships. A race limited to a single planet, possessing a high knowledge of mechanics but with its basic machines of industry and war requiring a large capital investment, will inevitably tend toward collectivism under one name or another. Free enterprise needs elbow room."
- Poul Anderson, Margin of Profit (1956)

Janus
"Chaos is a friend of mine."
--Bob Dylan

Jordi
"We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals... They are not brethren, they are not underlings; they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendour and travail of the earth."
-- Henry Beston

"Shall we, because we walk on our hind feet, assume to ourselves only the privilege of imperishability? "
--George Eliot

"If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men. "
--St. Francis of Assisi

"The animals of the world exist for their own reasons. They were not made for humans any more than black people were made for white, or women created for men. "
--Alice Walker
