• "I was just offered a contract on your life, for enough money to make it worth my while." It was my turn to be quiet. "Did you take it?" "Would I be calling you if I had?" "Maybe," I said. He laughed. "True, but I'm not going to take it." "Why not?" "Friendship." "Try again," I said. "I figure I'll get to kill more people guarding you. If I take the contract, I only get to kill you." "Comforting."

• Nothing in the church makes people in the church more angry than grace. It's ironic: we stumble into a party we weren't invited to and find the uninvited standing at the door making sure no other uninviteds get in. Then a strange phenomenon occurs: as soon as we are included in the party because of Jesus' irresponsible love, we decide to make grace "more responsible" by becoming self-appointed Kingdom Monitors, guarding the kingdom of God, keeping the riffraff out (which, as I understand it, are who the kingdom of God is supposed to include).

• A person shows signs of clutching on too fast, of being needy, of not hearing the word "no," of jealousy, of guarding you and your freedom. But the signs can be so small they skitter right past you. Sometimes they dance past, looking satiny, something you should applaud. Someone's jealousy can make you feel good. Special. But it's not even about you. It's about a hand that is already gripping. It's about their need, circling around your throat

• Siempre que el verdadero mensaje de la cruz es abolido, la ira de los hipócritas y herejes cesa.. y todas las cosas están en paz. Esta es una señal segura de que el diablo está cuidando la entrada de la casa, y que la PURA doctrina de la Palabra de Dios ha sido quitada. La Iglesia entonces, está en el MEJOR estado cuando Satanás la asedia por todos lados, tanto con sutiles artimañas, como con violencia descarada. Y del mismo modo, está en el PEOR estado cuando está más en paz.

• There are two ways of defending a castle; one by shutting yourself up in it, and guarding every loop-hole; the other by making it an open centre of operations from which all the surrounding country may be subdued. Is not the last the truest safety?

• I also say with backbends, you have to be cautiously bold. Not carelessly bold. You have to descend to the dictation of the spine. You cannot command from the brain to do the poses. As you play with a child, guarding the child from injuries, similarly you have to play in backbends, guarding your spine.

• Some think we each have a guardian angel while others think we don't have an assigned guardian angel, while yet others think God at times - but not always and not by assignment to each of us - sends an angel on a mission of guarding. The Bible's evidence that each of us has a specific, assigned guardian angel is not as solid as some think, so I'm with those who think sometimes God sends guardian angels but that we don't have a specific guardian angel.

• A sense of being part of the great all-inclusive life prompts us to reflect on our own place and on how we ought to live. Guarding others' lives, the ecology and the earth is the same as protecting one's own life. By like token, wounding them is the same thing as wounding oneself. Consequently, it is the duty of each of us to participate as members of the life community in the evolution of the universe. We can do this by guarding earth's ecological system.

• You want to trace California's move to the far left, you go back to the 1986 Simpson-Mazzoli bill. Simpson-Mazzoli was where we granted amnesty to, at the time, what was three and a half million illegal aliens. And that's it. We were told that would be it. We would start being strict about guarding the borders and making sure that there wasn't any more illegal immigration, but that didn't happen. That was the design. Ted Kennedy, Simpson-Mazzoli, it was their idea here and it's worked out magnificently for them to this extent.

• Me encanta que la vida sea así. Cuando ocurre algo horrible, te encuentras riendo en lugares extraños en medio del dolor y llorando en el supermercado cuando ves un cereal que alguien solía comer. No hay forma de protegerse de una forma u otra. Todo el mundo sufre de forma diferente y no hay una manera correcta o incorrecta.

• -- and it occurred to me that people who don't talk about themselves are limiting their own potential. They think they're guarding themselves for some sort of abstract dange, but they're actually allowing other people to decide who they are and what they're like.

• I was observing her closely as I talked, and after a while I began to get the impression that she was not, in fact, quite so merry and smiling a girl as I had been led to believe at first. She seemed to be coiled in herself, as though with a secret she was jealously guarding. The deep-blue eyes moved too quickly about the room, never settling or resting on one thing for more than a moment; and over all her face, though so faint that they might not even have been there, those small downward lines of sorrow.

• You go first. Go through the door before me. Enter the limousine while I wait by your side. Enter the shops while I stand behind, guarding your back. Sit at the table before me. Please, sample the tastiest morsels while I sit quietly. My desire is that you go first, in every occasion of earthly life. Only once will I go before you, And that will be at my last moment. For when death claims us, you must go last. Because I can't live one second without you.

• En 1971, después de siete años en la universidad, con ese mágico trozo de papel agarrado triunfalmente en mi puño, el mejor trabajo que pude conseguir fue el de vigilante nocturno en un proyecto de alcantarillado en Babylon, New York, vigilando un agujero en el suelo para evitar que alguien lo robara. ¡Dios bendiga el sistema educativo estadounidense!

• No hay nada más seguro para destruir cualquier buen sentimiento que se pueda albergar hacia nosotros que mostrar desconfianza. Sospechar de un enemigo es a menudo suficiente para que un hombre se convierta en tal. Por el contrario, la confianza nos lleva naturalmente a actuar amablemente, nos afecta la buena opinión que los demás tienen de nosotros, y no es fácil inducirnos a perderla.
