Heroes and Children

"Exertion, self-denial, endurance, these make the hero, but to the spoiled child they connote the evil of nature and the malice of man."
Richard Weaver (1910-1963)

  1. Up is down, down is up;
    Day is night, night is day;
    So it seems.

  2. "For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."

    - Jesus Christ
    (Luke 14:11)


    Our Lord's words are thought of as foolishness to the worldling, too. He is counter-intuitive to the unregenerate.
