More From Martin Luther

That the religious right completely took over the word christian is a given. at one time, phrases such as christian charity and christian tolerance were used to denote kindness and compassion. to perform a "christian" act meant an act of giving, of acceptance, of toleration. now, christian is invariably linked to right-wing conservative political thought -- christian nation, christian morality, christian values, christian family.

A christian boy or girl can learn mathematics, for example, from a teacher who is not a christian; and truth is truth however learned. but while truth is truth however learned, the bearing of truth, the meaning of truth, the purpose of truth, even in the sphere of mathematics, seem entirely different to the christian from that which they seem to the non-christian; and that is why a truly christian education is possible only when christian conviction underlies not a part but all, of the curriculum of the school.

Whoever is devoid of the capacity to wonder, whoever remains unmoved, whoever cannot contemplate or know the deep shudder of the soul in enchantment, might just as well be dead for he has already closed his eyes upon life.

In your eyes the light the heat in your eyes i am complete in your eyes i see the doorway to a thousand churches in your eyes the resolution of all the fruitless searches in your eyes i see the light and the heat in your eyes oh, i want to be that complete i want to touch the light, the heat i see in your eyes
Song Eye Light
Hath not a jew eyes? hath not a jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions? ...if you poison us, do we not die? and if you wrong us, shall we not revenge? if we are like you in the rest, we will resemble you in that. if a jew wrong a christian, what is his humility? revenge. if a christian wrong a jew, what should his sufferance be by christian example?
Christian Revenge Humility
Whoever you are: in the evening step out of your room, where you know everything; yours is the last house before the far-off: whoever you are. with your eyes, which in their weariness barely free themselves from the worn-out threshold, you lift very slowly one black tree and place it against the sky: slender, alone. and you have made the world. and it is huge and like a word which grows ripe in silence. and as your will seizes on its meaning, tenderly your eyes let it go.

I have always understood the unbelieving look in the eyes of those whom success touches early - it is a look half fearful, as though the dream were still in the process of being dreamed and to move or to speak would shatter it.

The best advice i can give on this is, once it's done, to put it away until you can read it with new eyes. finish the short story, print it out, then put it in a drawer and write other things. when you're ready, pick it up and read it, as if you've never read it before. if there are things you aren't satisfied with as a reader, go in and fix them as a writer: that's revision.

Sometimes i wondered if i was seeing the same things through my eyes that the rest of the world was seeing through theirs. maybe there was a glitch in my brain.
