And then you cry fresh tears, because you do not miss him as much as you once did, and giving up your grief is another kind of death. View quote

Monotheistic religions alone furnish the spectacle of religious wars, religious persecutions, heretical tribunals, that breaking of idols and destruction of images of the gods, that razing of Indian temples and Egyptian colossi, which had looked on the sun 3,000 years: just because a jealous god had said, Thou shalt make no graven image.

As a general rule, any object capable of breaking down at the moment when it is most needed will do so. View quote
