INSPIRATIONAL THOUGHTS


"Never mind failures; they are quite natural, they are the beauty of life --these failures. What would life be without them?
It would not be worth having if it were not for struggles.  Where would be the poetry of life? Never mind the struggles, the mistakes.  I never heard a cow tell a lie, but it is only a cow- never a man.  So never mind these failures, these little backslidings; hold the ideal a thousand times; and if you fail a thousand times, make the attempt once more."

The Woolsack: The woolsack is a large red cushion on which the Lord Chancellor sits in the House of Lords.  The origin of the custom is in this way:  During the time of Queen Elizabeth I, wool was considered as a very valuable commodity and was considered as a source of national wealth.  Many people were employed in this industry.  An Act was passed prohibiting the export of raw wool from  England. To remind the judges of this law, the Queen ordered that each of them when in the House of Lords should sit on a cushion or sack stuffed with wool. Hence originates the name woolsack.

INSPIRATIONAL WORDS

GOD AND RELIGION "In studying books we are sometimes deluded into thinking that thereby we are being spiritually helped; but, we analize the effect of the study of books on ourselves, we shall find that at the utmost, it is only our intellect that derives profit from such studies, and not the inner spirit.  This inadequacy of the book to quicken the spiritual growth is the reason, why although almost every one of us can speak most wonderfully on spiritual matters when it comes to actions and the living of a truly spiritual life, we find ourselves so awfully deficient.  To quicken the spirit, the impulse must come from another soul".                                    -Swami Vivekananda
