More From James Schuyler

People (a group that in my opinion has always attracted an undue amount of attention) have often been likened to snowflakes. this analogy is meant to suggest that each is unique - no two alike. this is quite patently not the case. people, even at the current rate of inflation - in fact, people especially at the current rate of inflation - are quite simply a dime a dozen. and, i hasten to add, their only similarity to snowflakes resides in their invariably and lamentable tendency to turn, after a few warm days, to slush.
Unique Two People
With patient and firm determination, i am going to press on for jobs. i'm going to press on for equality. i'm going to press on for the sake of our children. i'm going to press on for the sake of all those families who are struggling right now. i don't have time to feel sorry for myself. i don't have time to complain. i am going to press on.

You will want a book which contains not man's thoughts, but god's - not a book that may amuse you, but a book that can save you - not even a book that can instruct you, but a book on which you can venture an eternity - not only a book which can give relief to your spirit, but redemption to your soul - a book which contains salvation, and conveys it to you, one which shall at once be the saviour's book and the sinner's.
Bible Book Men
Brave old-flowers! wall-flowers, gilly flowers, stocks! for even as the field-flowers, from which a trifle, a ray of beauty, a drop of perfume, divides them, they have charming names, the softest in the language; and each of them, like tiny, art-less ex-votos, or like medals bestowed by the gratitude of men, proudly bears three or four.
Gratitude Art Wall
If you come to plum village in the summertime, you see many lotus flowers. without the mud the lotus flowers cannot grow. you cannot separate lotus flowers from the mud. it is the same with understanding and love. these are two kinds of flowers that grow on the ground of suffering
Flower Two Summertime
You remember when you were maybe five years old and you went out in the morning and you looked at the day - and it was a very, very beautiful day. you looked at flowers and they were very beautiful flowers. twenty-five years later, you get up in the morning, you take a look at the flowers - they are wilted. the day isn't a happy day. well, what's changed? you know they are the same flowers, it's the same world. something must have changed. well, probably it was you.

I keep thinking of robert stone making the distinction between the word sublime and the word beautiful. he described being in a battle as sublime. because even though people were dying, it was such a huge sensory experience that it became sublime.
Beautiful Thinking People
I still like getting dressed up and having the opportunity to borrow beautiful dresses, but as a mother - and as somebody who's schedule isn't always my own - i don't shop a lot, or think about clothes a lot.
Beautiful Mother Opportunity
I was brought up imagining that cream rises to the top, merit wins out, the race is to the swift and riches to men of understanding, but it ain't necessarily so. the swift stand a better chance if they are also beautiful.
