A civil war is a war between organized groups within the same state (or country). The aim of one side may be to take control of the country or a region, to achieve independence for a region, or to change government policies. The term is a calque of Latin bellum civile which was used to refer to the various civil wars of the Roman Republic in the 1st century BC.

## Quotes

* Amongst all other vices there is none I hate more than cruelty, both by nature and judgement, as the extremest of all vices. ... I live in an age wherein we abound with incredible examples of this vice, through the licentiousness of our civil and intestine wars; And read all ancient Stories, be they never so tragical, you shall find none to equal those, we daily see practised.
** Montaigne, Essayes (tr. John Florio)
* RICHMOND: England hath long been mad, and scarr'd herself; The brother blindly shed the brother's blood, The father rashly slaughter'd his own son, The son, compell'd, been butcher to the sire: All this divided York and Lancaster,
** Shakespeare, Richard III, V, 5
* The Civil Wars, the common purgative, Which always use to make the nation thrive,
** Daniel Defoe, The True-born Englishman (1701)
* I can assure you that no kingdom has ever had as many civil wars as the kingdom of Christ.
** Montesquieu, Persian Letters (tr. C. J. Betts)

## Quotes

    Frank: I gotta get a drink. Sobriety's killing me.
    Frank: You said if I came in late for another shift, you'd fire me.
    Captain Barney: I'll fire you tomorrow.
    Mary: You have to be strong to survive in this city.
    Frank: Oh, I see. With all the poor people of this city who wanted only to live and vere viciously murdered, you have the nerve to sit here, wanting to die, and not go through with it? You make me sick!
    Frank: Saving someone's life is like falling in love. The best drug in the world. For days, sometimes weeks afterwards, you walk the streets, making infinite whatever you see. Once, for a few weeks, I couldn't feel the Earth - everything I touched became lighter. Horns played in my shoes. Flowers fell from my pockets. You wonder if you've become immortal, as if you've saved your own life as well. God has passed through you. Why deny it, that for a moment there - why deny that for a moment there, God was you?
    Frank: I realized that my training was useful in less than ten percent of the calls, and saving lives was rarer than that. After a while, I grew to understand that my role was less about saving lives than about bearing witness. I was a grief mop. It was enough that I simply turned up.
    Frank: Tom, where are the Band-Aids? This IS an ambulence, isn't it?
    Griss: Don't make me take off my sunglasses!
    Dr. Hazmat: I thought you said this guy was dead.
    Frank: He got better.
    Dr. Hazmat: I'm going to have to intubate because the kid's mother won't sign the Do Not Resuscitate. Mercy killing doesn't translate well in Spanish.
    Tom: Frank, what do you know? It's you and me again tonight. The rough riders, tearing up the streets, just like old times. This old bus is a warrior, Frank. I have tried to kill her, but she will not die. I have a great respect for that.

# Bringing Up Baby

Bringing Up Baby is a 1938 film about a scatter-brained heiress who drags a mild-mannered scientist into helping her care for a leopard named Baby.

## Susan Vance

* [limping after losing a heel] I was born on the side of a hill!
* [reading a letter about Baby] "He's three years old, gentle as a kitten, and likes dogs." I wonder whether Mark means that he eats dogs or is fond of them?

## Dr. David Huxley

* Now it isn't that I don't like you, Susan, because, after all, in moments of quiet, I'm strangely drawn toward you, but, well, there haven't been any quiet moments.
* When a man is wrestling a leopard in the middle of a pond, he's in no position to run!

    Susan: Well, don't you worry, David, because if there's anything that I can do to help you, just let me know and I'll do it.
    David: [nervously] Well, er... don't do it until I let you know.
    [Susan and David are in jail]
    Susan: Anyway, David, when they find out who we are they'll let us out.
    David: When they find out who you are they'll pad the cell.
    [David is wearing a women's boa-collared negligee]

# Asger Jorn

Asger Oluf Jorn (March 3, 1914 – May 1, 1973) was born in Vejrum, in the northwest corner of Jutland, Denmark and baptized Asger Oluf Jørgensen. In 1946 he changed his name into Asger Oluf Jorn. He was a founding member of the COBRA-group and later of the Situationist International; he was a prolific artist, active organizer and essayist. He felt himself strongly connected to Nordic myths, as well as to modern times.

## Quotes about Asger Jorn

    sorted chronologically, after date of the quotes about Asger Jorn
* Jorn's role in the Situationist movement (as in COBRA) was that of a catalyst and team leader. Guy Debord on his own lacked the personal warmth and persuasiveness to draw people of different nationalities and talents into an active working partnership. As a prototype Marxist intellectual Debord needed an ally who could patch up the petty egoisms and squabbles of the members. Their quarrels came into the open the moment Jorn's leadership was withdrawn in 1961.. .Finally, 1966-8 saw the vindication of Debord's policy, sustained against every kind of opposition, of adhering rigidly to the uncompromising pursuit of a single-minded plan. When the time came - in Strasbourg in November 1966 and in Paris in May 1968 - Debord was ready, with his two or three remaining supporters, to take over the revolutionary role for which he had been preparing during the last ten years. Incredible as it may seem, the active ideologists ('enragés' and Situationists) behind the revolutionary events in Strasbourg, Nanterre and Paris, numbered only about ten persons.
** Quote of Guy Atkins, ‎Troels Andersen (1977) Asger Jorn, the crucial years 1954-1964, p. 63
* One method [of Jorn] was to work with accidental shapes, and this was to become a lifelong preoccupation. But in the beginning the techniques of Surrealism were put to good use: Collage, frottage, color sprayed on paper with an airbrush or floated on the surface of a bowl of water and lifted off on paper. Another way to break the link between line and plane was by what Arp called the "square-eyed" method or alternately, with Dali, putting one drawing on top of another, using transparent paper. Jorn had availed himself of all these methods and experiments by 1940.
** Quote of Troels Andersen (1985), in Asger Jorn, Silkeborg Kunstmuseum, (translated from Danish by Peter Shiled) pp. 25-31

# Asahel Nettleton

Asahel Nettleton (April 21, 1783 – May 16, 1844) was an American theologian and pastor from Connecticut who was highly influential during the Second Great Awakening.

## Quotes

* We may talk of the best means of doing good; but, after all, the greatest difficulty lies in doing it in a proper spirit. Speak- the truth in love, "in meekness instructing those that oppose themselves" — with the meekness and gentleness of Christ.
** Reported in Josiah Hotchkiss Gilbert, Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895), p. 129.
* That holy, humble, meek, modest, retiring Form, sometimes called the Spirit of Prayer, has been dragged from the closet, and so rudely handled by some of her professed friends, that she has not only lost all her wonted loveliness, but is now stalking the street, in some places, stark mad.
** Reported in Josiah Hotchkiss Gilbert, Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895), p. 193.
# Ascanius

Ascanio or Iulus (lived: 12th century B.C.E., was the legendary king of Alba Longa and is the son of the Trojan hero Aeneas and Creusa, daughter of Priam, mentioned in the Aeneid.

## Quotes by Ascanius:

* Now go, be proud: now go, mock, | havoc, the virtue of others. These answers | they send the Phrygians who are locked in cages | to the Rutuli lord of the countryside. (Publio Virgilio Marone, Aeneid)

## Quotes about Ascanio:

* My feminine side is revealed in having staged Ascanio, the son of Aeneas that Purcell does not include. But for Virgil it is fundamental. (Chiara Muti)
* The woman spoke to the newborn while she cradled him: «Always remember the story of your origin, of the beginning, of the birth of the gens Giulia, your father's family. I, your mother, come from an ancient lineage, the gens Aurelia, whose name derives from the sun; your father's blood has joined my blood, and our gens, unlike the families enriched through corruption and violence, is the most noble in all of Rome. The goddess Venus lay with the shepherd Anchises, and from the relationship Aeneas was born. Subsequently, Aeneas was forced to flee from a burning Troy, set on fire by the Greeks. He escaped together with his father, his wife Creusa and his son Ascanius, who here in Rome is called Iulus. Aeneas' father and wife perished during the long journey from distant Asia to Italy. Here, Iulo founded Alba Longa. Years later, the beautiful princess Rhea Silvia of Alba Longa, direct descendant of Iulus, was possessed by the god Mars and from that union Romulus and Remus were born. Romulus founded Rome. Your family is directly related to Iulo, from whom the gens Giulia takes its name. (Santiago Posteguillo)

### Publius Virgilio Marone, Aeneid:

* Ah good boy, in whose virtue one advances! | So I went to the stars. Now you show well | that you were born from the gods, and that other gods | they will be born from you. You are well worthy | that every war that fate still threatens | at the house of Assáraco, calm down | for your greatness, to which Troy is lesser, | yes, he already doesn't understand you. (Apollo: book IX)
* In the midst of the ranks the vague Iulus, | great nephew of Dardano and great care | of the beautiful Ciprigna, his face and head | naked, it shone like a clear gem that in òr tied others rays from the chest | or from the forehead; or what from a learned hand | in committed ebony, or in terebinth | white ivory appears in his eyes. | Above the milky neck the blond hair | had stretched out, and a slow golden ribbon | I made him both a frieze and a knot. (book
* Aeneas, of the Roman lineage author, | with his celestial weapons and shield | who had come from the stars earlier, | I went out on the other side, and with me on equal terms | Ascanius, his son, of the great Rome | the second hope. (book XII)

# Asenaca Caucau

Adi Asenaca Coboiverata Caucau-Filipe (commonly known simply as Adi Asenaca Caucau) is a Fijian Cabinet Minister, who has held the Women, Social Welfare, and Poverty Alleviation portfolios since 2001.

## Parliamentary speech, 28 July 2002 (and aftermath)

* "I am simply stating a fact and it was not meant to be racist" - reaction to subsequent calls for an apology.

## Opening address to the Pacific Regional Media Training Workshop on "Women's Issues, Women's Voices," January 2005

* "There seems to be a lot of love-hate relationships in Fiji today, between so many and the media, simply because there are so many negative reporting and a serious lack of understanding on journalists' part on working on reports or their stories. I am actually hoping for more from the Fiji media and the region, we need a whole lot more positive reporting."
* "I ask the media to concentrate on positive things rather than just doing the rounds on rape, incest, molestation on women."

## Parliamentary speech, 9 August 2005

* "A key strategy towards restoring stability is developing targeted approaches to poverty reduction across different sectors coupled with the specific social provisions for the poor and the most vulnerable groups in society."

## Statement about beggars, 7 November 2005)

Source: Fiji Sun
* "We invite them here to learn basic skills and we have even paid for them to do courses at TPAF because that’s what they said they wanted to do. But after that they just move back on the streets and amongst them are some who are renting out their houses."
* "The young people will think that begging is okay and if you are finding difficulties you can just go on the streets and beg."
* "Some of them pretend to be disabled or lie that they are orphans just to be able to get sympathy and money. So for the beggars it should not be an issue any more, they should be taken off the streets."

## Miscellaneous quotes

* "All over the world people are dying of poverty but that is not the case here in Fiji because the beauty about Fiji is that people are always ready to help those in need."
* "There are only a certain number of people who are begging. These are the same people and the assumption that begging is increasing is in fact wrong because it is the same people who keep moving about."
# Deification

Deification, also called divinization or apotheosis, is the elevation of a thing, person or idea to the level of a god.

## Quotes

* The new religious consciousness rises up against the nihilistic attitude towards the world and mankind. ... We believe in the objective, the cosmic might of the truth of God, in the possibility according to God to guide the earthly destiny of mankind. This will be the victory of the true theocracy, whether over a false democratism, — the apotheosis of the quantitative collectivity of human wills, or so also over the false theocraticism, — all that apotheosis of the human will within Caesaropapism or Papocaesarism.
** Nikolai Berdyaev, "Nihilism On A Religious Soil" (6 May 1907); it should be noted here that Berdyaev is here defining "theocracy" not in the sense as it is often used, of people ruling over other people, in claims of doing so by the commands of God, but rather defining it in terms of Christian anarchism — as a vigorous assertion of the right of no-one to rule over humans, save God.
* The entire modern deification of survival per se, survival returning to itself, survival naked and abstract, with the denial of any substantive excellence in what survives, except the capacity for more survival still, is surely the strangest intellectual stopping-place ever proposed by one man to another.
** William James, review of Clifford's Lectures and Essays, Collected Essays and Reviews (1920), p. 143 (1879)
* There is something deeply troubling about a culture which makes humans into gods, and which puts people on pedestals to be worshipped. For, it glosses over all blemishes in its quest for the godly.
** Nissim Mannathukkaren, The God of a hundred things (April 07, 2012), The Hindu. Quoted in Ansari, Khalid A. H. (2012). Murzello, Clayton. ed. Sachin, Born to Bat: The Journey of Cricket's Ultimate Centurion. Jaico Publishing House. p. 230. ISBN 978-81-8495-300-8.
* It is a bad thing for a nation to raise and to admire a false standard of success; and there can be no falser standard than that set by the deification of material well-being in and for itself.
** Theodore Roosevelt, Citizenship in a Republic, a speech at the Sorbonne, Paris, France (23 April 1910).
* It is likely … that human society cannot exist without some source of sacredness. Those states which have sought openly to remove it have tended in the end to assume divinity themselves.
** Richard Weaver, Ideas Have Consequences (Chicago: 1948), p. 146
* For modern man, … pride reveals itself in impatience, which is an unwillingness to bear the pain of discipline. … In effect his becomes a deification of his own will; man is not making himself like a god but is taking himself as he is and putting himself in the place of God.
** Richard Weaver, Ideas Have Consequences (Chicago: 1948), p. 183

## Quotes

* Art is the Flower - Life is the Green Leaf. Let every artist strive to make his flower a beautiful living thing, something that will convince the world that there may be, there are, things more precious more beautiful - more lasting than life itself... you must offer real, living - beautifully coloured flowers - flowers that grow from, but above, the green leaf – flowers that are not dead – are not dying – not artificial – real flowers springing from your own soul – not even cut flowers - You must offer the flowers of the art that is in you – the symbols of all that is noble – and beautiful – and inspiring - flowers that will often change a colourless leaf - into an established and thoughtful thing.
