Feelings Man himself is a great deep, by whose very hairs Thou numberest, O Lord, and they fall not to the ground without Thee. And yet are the hairs of his head easier to be numbered than are his feelings, and the beatings of his heart. --ST. AUGUSTINE (345-430) The weather and my mood have little connection. I haV'e my foggy and my fine days within me. My prosperity or misfortune has little to do with the matter. I sometimes struggle against luck, and the glory of mastering it makes me master it gaily; whereas I am sometimes surfeited in the midst of good fortune. --BLAISE PASCAL (1623-62) As Gregory says, "The heart that is inflamed with the stings of its own anger beats quick, the body trembles, the tongue stammers, the countenance takes fire, the eyes grow fierce, and they that are well known are not recognized. With the mouth indeed he shapes a sound, but the understanding knows not what it says." --ST. THOMAS AQUINAS (about 1225-74) J®i!§l Pisfiry Hop Thurs., Fri., Sat., PLAIN OR SEEDED AVAILABLE NOW AT.
