Year-End Inventory

The purpose of my inventory is to get a clear picture of where I now stand, to recognize shortcomings that still need to be corrected, and not to use any self-deceiving means of justifying them. (One Day At A Time In Al-Anon, 1 December) 30 December 2012

Moral Law

Moral law is so obvious and clear that even people who do not know the law have no excuse for violating it.  They have only one recourse: to deny their intellect, which they do. (Leo Tolstoy, A Calendar Of Wisdom, 26 September)

Do not try to justify war in the existence of the military. If you try to apply logical thought to explain things that are evil, the efforts will only prevent your intellect and poison your heart. (Leo Tolstoy, A Calendar Of Wisdom, 29 September)
