More From Randall Jarrell

One of life's best coping mechanisms is to know the difference between an inconvenience and a problem. if you break your neck, if you have nothing to eat, if your house is on fire, then you’ve got a problem. everything else is an inconvenience. life is inconvenient. life is lumpy. a lump in the oatmeal, a lump in the throat and a lump in the breast are not the same kind of lump. one needs to learn the difference.
Differences Coping Mechanisms Oatmeal
For thirty years now, in times of stress and strain, when something has me backed against the wall and i'm ready to do something really stupid with my anger, a sorrowful face appears in my mind and asks... "problem or inconvenience?" i think of this as the wollman test of reality. life is lumpy. and a lump in the oatmeal, a lump in the throat, and a lump in the breast are not the same lump. one should learn the difference.

When one has once accepted and absorbed evil, it no longer demands the unfitness of the means. the ulterior motives with which youabsorb and assimilate evil are not your own but those of evil.... evil is whatever distracts. evil knows of the good, but good does not know of evil. knowledge of oneself is something only evil has. one means that evil has is the dialogue.... one cannot pay evil in installments--and one always keeps on trying to.
Mean Evil Trying
Every year i tell myself that i’m not going to read any reviews and then i do. we’re all human and when i read something negative it hurts. i think when you write it’s part of the game, you’re going to get some good reviews and some bad reviews and that’s how it goes. i don’t write for the reviews.

As for the house, it is scrubbed to the tiniest mousehole before passover, to avoid such dangers as even a forgotten cake crumb might cause. passover dishes are probably the most interesting of any in the jewish cuisine because of the lack of leaven and the resulting challenge to fine cooks.... everything is doubly rich, as if to compensate for the lack of leaven... [w]oes are forgotten in the pleasures of the table, for if the mosaic laws are rightly followed, no man need fear true poison in his belly, but only the results of his own gluttony.

Faith may be defined briefly as an illogical belief in the occurrence of the improbable.... a man full of faith is simply one who has lost (or never had) the capacity for clear and realistic thought. he is not a mere ass: he is actually ill.

The history of christianity, therefore, must be of concern to all who are interested in the record of man and particularly to all who seek to understand the contemporary human scene.

I recorded the song 'believers' because i feel the song has a strong and much needed message. we all need encouragement and something to believe in.
Song Encouragement Strong
The rich will strive to establish their dominion and enslave the rest. they always did...they always will. they will have the same effect here as elsewhere, if we do not, by the power of government, keep them in their proper spheres.
