| A strong sense of separateness in the past has brought about competition and warring. But now, we are more interdependent. So we need to communicate, hold dialogs, and compromise. It would be good to have a bullet that searches for and hits the real troublemaker, which is within us. |

| Another error has been in ascribing to the intention of the Convention which formed the Constitution an undue ascendancy in expounding it. Apart from the difficulty of verifying that intention, it is clear, that if the meaning of the Constitution is to be sought out of itself, it is not in the proceedings of the body that proposed it, but in those of the State Conventions, which gave it all the validity and authority which it possesses. |
| ~ Letter to N.P. Trist, December, 1831 (James Madison, 1865, IV, page 211) ~ |

| That Calvinistic sense of Innate Depravity and Original Sin, from whose visitations, in some shape or another, no deeply thinking mind is always and wholly free. For, in certain moods, no man can weigh this world, without throwing in something, somehow like Original Sin, to strike the uneven balance. |
| ~ Herman Melville (1819–1891), U.S. author. “Hawthorne and His Mosses” (1850), The Piazza Tales and Other Prose Pieces 1839-1860, The Writings of Herman Melville, vol. 9, eds. Harrison Hayford, Alma A. MacDougall, and G. Thomas Tanselle (1987). ~ |

| Seeing the meaningful as meaningful, and the meaningless as meaningless, one is capable of genuine understanding, and will gain the heart of meaning. |

| "You bounced me," said Eeyore gruffly. "I didn't really. I had a cough, and I happened to be behind Eeyore, and I said `_Grrrr --- oppp --- ptschschschz.'" "Why?" said Rabbit, helping Piglet up, and dusting him. "It's all right, Piglet." "It took me by surprise," said Piglet nervously. |
