Soldiers have many faults, but they have one redeeming merit they are never worshippers of force. Soldiers more than any other men are taught severely and systematically that might is not right. The fact is obvious. The might is in the hundred men who obey. The right (or what is held to be right) is in the one man who commands them.

I want to live darkly and richly in my femaleness. I want a man lying over me, always over me.

I don’t mind working, holding my ground intellectually, artistically but as a woman, oh, God, as a woman I want to be dominated

Amy Carmichael
Image
Human models are more vivid and more persuasive than explicit moral commands.
Daniel J. Boorstin
Image
God commands us to love Him, not as much as He deserves, because He knows our capabilities and therefore He does not ask us to do what we cannot do. But He asks us to love Him according to our strength, with all our soul, all our mind, and all our heart.
Pio of Pietrelcina
