. . . Our Lord humbles in order to raise up, and allows the suffering of interior and exterior afflictions in order to bring about peace.

If our eloquence be directed above the heads of our hearers, we shall do no execution. By pointing our arguments low, we stand a chance of hitting their hearts as well as their heads. In addressing angels, we could hardly raise our eloquence too high but we must remember that men are not angels.

Obama and Biden want to raise taxes by a trillion dollars. Guess what? Yes, we do in one regard.

That's called fairness where I come from.
Joe Biden
