# 1 Esdras

1 Esdras (Greek: Ἔσδρας Αʹ), also Esdras A, Greek Esdras, Greek Ezra, or 3 Esdras, is an ancient Greek version of the biblical Book of Ezra in use among the early church, and many modern Christians with varying degrees of canonicity. 1 Esdras is substantially derived from Masoretic Ezra–Nehemiah, with the passages specific to the career of Nehemiah removed or re-attributed to Ezra, and some additional material.

## Quotes
#### Chapter 1

* The first wrote, Wine is the strongest. The second wrote, The king is strongest. The third wrote, Women are strongest: but above all things Truth beareth away the victory.
** NRSV, 3:10-12

#### Chapter 3

* Women are strongest: but above all things Truth beareth away the victory.
** NRSV, 3:12

#### Chapter 4

* By this also ye must know that women have dominion over you: do ye not labour and toil, and give and bring all to the women? Yea, a man taketh his sword, and goeth his way to rob and to steal, to sail upon the sea and upon rivers; And looketh upon a lion, and goeth in the darkness; and when he hath stolen, spoiled, and robbed, he bringeth it to his love.
** NRSV, 4:22-24
* Truth is great, and stronger than all things. The whole earth calls upon truth, and heaven blesses it. All God’s works quake and tremble, and with him there is nothing unrighteous. Wine is unrighteous, the king is unrighteous, women are unrighteous, all human beings are unrighteous, all their works are unrighteous, and all such things. There is no truth in them and in their unrighteousness they will perish. But truth endures and is strong forever, and lives and prevails forever and ever. With it there is no partiality or preference, but it does what is righteous instead of anything that is unrighteous or wicked. Everyone approves its deeds, and there is nothing unrighteous in its judgment. To it belongs the strength and the kingship and the power and the majesty of all the ages. Blessed be the God of truth!
** 1 Esdras (NRSV), 4:35-40
* Great is truth, and mighty above all things.
** NRSV, 4:41

* “It occurred to Bo that Texas songs were always about the sky because there simply wasn't anything else. No hill, no mound, not even a ripple of earth to break the dizzying sweep of the eye toward infinity. “Flat,” she decided, was a term insufficient to the terrain. It was more than that. It was actually a negative pull, an inverted gasp of ground beneath a firmament so boundless it might threaten the sanity of even those who weren't already pushing the edge.

Stay persistent, stay consistent, stay focused and think outside the box.
* Passion and a sense of self. You need to be passionate about whatever it is you want to do, period. Now with acting, it has to be the same. A sense of self is simply knowing who you are, owning your craft and knowing your worth. You need to believe in your own sauce.
* Be patient. Growing up, I always wanted things to happen fast; I sometimes still do. I try to rush the process and I have realised that the process is totally out of my control. Learning to let go and let God.

# Abraham Flexner

Abraham Flexner (November 13, 1866 – September 21, 1959) was an American educator, best known for his role in the 20th century reform of medical and higher education in the United States and Canada.
After founding and directing a college-preparatory school in his hometown of Louisville, Kentucky, Flexner published a critical assessment of the state of the American educational system in 1908 titled The American College: A Criticism. His work attracted the Carnegie Foundation to commission an in-depth evaluation into 155 medical schools in the US and Canada. It was his resultant self-titled Flexner Report, published in 1910, that sparked the reform of medical education in the United States and Canada. Flexner was also a founder of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, which brought together some of the greatest minds in modern times to collaborate on intellectual discovery and research.

## Quotes

* Curiosity, which may or may not eventuate in something useful, is probably the outstanding characteristic of modern thinking.
** Flexner, Abraham, The Usefulness of Useless Knowledge. Harper’s Magazine. Issue 179, June / November 1939, p. 545.
* In the face of the history of the human race what can be more silly or ridiculous than likes or dislikes founded upon race or religion?
** Flexner, Abraham, The Usefulness of Useless Knowledge. Harper’s Magazine. Issue 179, June / November 1939, p. 550.
* A poem, a symphony, a painting, a mathematical truth, a new scientific fact, all bear in themselves all the justification that universities, colleges, and institutes of research need or require.
** Flexner, Abraham, The Usefulness of Useless Knowledge. Harper’s Magazine. Issue 179, June / November 1939, p. 550.
* Science, like the Mississippi, begins in a tiny rivulet in the distant forest. Gradually other streams swell its volume. And the roaring river that bursts the dikes is formed from countless sources.
** Flexner, Abraham, The Usefulness of Useless Knowledge. Harper’s Magazine. Issue 179, June / November 1939, p. 549.
* Thus it becomes obvious that one must be wary in attributing scientific discovery wholly to any one person. Almost every discovery has a long and precarious history. Someone finds a bit here, another a bit there. A third step succeeds later and thus onward till a genius pieces the bits together and makes the decisive contribution.
** Flexner, Abraham, The Usefulness of Useless Knowledge. Harper’s Magazine. Issue 179, June / November 1939, p. 549.

Nothing is wanting now but charms which woonders great do worke O you my charms bring Daphnis from the town, bring Daphnis home. Charms able are from heaven high to fetch the moone adowne, With charms did Circe turne and change Ulisses fellowes shapes With charming is the snake so cold in medowes burst to peeces: O you my charms bring Daphnis from the town, bring Daphnis home.

# Appius Claudius Caecus

Appius Claudius Caecus (c. 340 – 273 BC) was a political leader in early Roman history, responsible for many historical infrastructure accomplishments such as the first viaduct system and the Appian Way.

## Quotes

* Faber est quisque fortunae suae (or) Faber est suae quisque fortunae (or) Est unusquisque faber ipsae suae fortunae.
** Every man is the architect of his own fortune.
*** This quote from Appius' famous speech (279 BC) opposing peace with the Greek general Pyrrhus I is sourced from the earliest known Roman historian with surviving works, Sallust, within a letter of political counsel written to Caesar circa 39-35 BC. His quote, "Sed res docuit id verum esse, quod in carminibus Appius ait, fabrum esse suae quemque fortunae, atque in te maxume...," (English, "But experience has demonstrated that what Appius stated in his verses is true, that “every man is the fashioner of his own fortune,” and especially so with regard to you [Caesar],...") as an indirect statement, is made in the third person and so the subject of the sentence ("quisquis," translated "each man") is conjugated to "quemque." To arrive at the original words spoken by Appius the first person conjugation must be used instead, and it is thus that the quotation is most well-known: "Faber est quisque fortunae suae", with est (English, "he is") taking the predicate nominative faber (English, "architect, artisan"), quisquis in the first person becomes quisque and the simple genitive of possession, suae (English, "his [possessive]"), spoken last. As is often found in short maxims of any era, the word order is non-standard. A more faithfully syntactic English translation might be, "Of his own fortune, each man is the architect." A version of the saying is the Latin motto of Fort Street High School.
*** James Grout, "Appius Claudius Caecus and the Letter Z", Encyclopaedia Romana; John T. Ramsay, ed. Sallust: Fragments of the Histories. Letters to Caesar, LCL 522 (2015), pp. 478–479; Norbert Guterman, ed. A Book of Latin Quotations (1966), pp. 2–3
