ellauri072.html on line 508: Infinite Jest is not the only thing that made Wallu famous, though. There was also his bandanna, which was as misinterpreted as so much else about him. As the Max biography explains, Wallace started wearing the bandanna as the least embarrassing solution he could think of to obscure the intense sweating attacks that overcame him without warning. (In high school, he had taken to carrying around a tennis racket and a towel as a tacit cover story for the sweating.) The acutely self-conscious, anxious, addicted and at times showy characters in Wallace’s fiction were not, Max helps us recognize, wildly difficult for Wallace to imagine — the characters were iterations of himself.
ellauri107.html on line 152: "I am sensitive to nothing in all the world as I am to my moral reputation." Torment about rectitude plagued Philip as acutely as any itch in the loins. That a man who’d written lurid books and led a sleazy life should be so primly worried about what people were saying struck me as funny. But that's a typical symptom for narcissism.
ellauri164.html on line 498: So, now, what can we learn from Moses’ life? Moses’ life is generally broken down into three 40-year periods. The first is his life in the court of Pharaoh. As the adopted son of Pharaoh’s daughter, Moses would have had all the perks and privileges of a prince of Egypt. He was instructed “in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and he was mighty in his words and deeds” (Acts 7:22). As the plight of the Hebrews began to disturb his soul, Moses took it upon himself to be the savior of his people. As Stephen says before the Jewish ruling council, “[Moses] supposed that his brothers would understand that God was giving them salvation by his hand” (Acts 7:25). From this incident, we learn that Moses was a man of action as well as a man possessed of a hot temper and prone to rash actions. Did God want to save His people? Yes. Did God want to use Moses as His chosen instrument of salvation? Yes. But Moses, whether or not he was truly cognizant of his role in the salvation of the Hebrew people, acted rashly and impetuously. He tried to do in his timing what God wanted done in His timing. The lesson for us is obvious: we must be acutely aware of not only doing God’s will, but doing God’s will in His timing, not ours. As is the case with so many other biblical examples, when we attempt to do God’s will in our timing, we make a bigger mess than originally existed.
ellauri263.html on line 383: Fauda’s creators have said they want to show that everyone living in a war zone pays a price, but such portrayals of an equality of suffering are ripe for criticism in the midst of an asymmetric conflict, in which one side is under occupation. This is more acutely obvious at a time when international media has focused on Israel opening fire on unarmed protesters near the Gaza border earlier this month, killing 58 Palestinians, including children, and wounding over 1,000 in a single day.
xxx/ellauri385.html on line 646: Pyhä Jean-Baptiste-Marie Vianney (1786-1859), myös Curé D’arse, oli roomalaiskatolinen ranskalainen pappi, pyhimys ja ihmeidentekijä. Hän on kaikkien pappien, seurakuntapappien, Iowan Dubuquen arkkihiippakunnan, ripittäjien ja Kansasin Kansas Cityn hiippakunnan suojeluspyhimys, ja Napsun armeijan sotilaskarkuri. Perseessä oli 230 asujainta. When Vianney's bishop first assigned him to Arse, Vianney got lost trying to find the town. Couldn't find his arse using both hands. With Catherine Lassagne and Benedicta Lardet, he established a home for girls. Vianney spent time with girls in the confessional and gave homilies against cursing and profane dancing. Vianney had a great devotion to Saint Philomena. He was regarded as her guardian because he erected so often in honour of the saint. He was a rare example of a pastor acutely aware of his responsibilities. In November 2018, Vianney's heart was transported to the United States for a 6-month nationwide tour.
