I tried to find Him on the Christian cross, but He was not there I went to the Temple of the Hindus and to the old pagodas, but I could not find a trace of Him anywhere. I searched on the mountains and in the valleys but neither in the heights nor in the depths was I able to find Him. I went to the Caaba in Mecca, but He was not there either.

Recognizing this, scholars of all ages have confidently given their hearts and minds to the words, You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free. – Everett PiperRate it:

As scholars of Japan and of Japan's place in the world, our collective responsibility rests on fostering open discussions ... and in leaving an honest record of its past for current and future generations. – Alexis DuddenRate it:
At Northeast Ohio College Preparatory School, our scholars are taught to embody respect, responsibility and relentlessness. All three characteristics were on display yesterday. – Justin ShullickRate it:
At that time, and without more context on the origin or intent of the posters, I responded hastily to the student, writing that I, too, was concerned. University staff also responded to ensure the posters were removed. These responses were mistakes. Every member of the GW community should feel welcome and supported, but I should have taken more time to understand the entire situation before commenting, i have since learned from our university’s scholars that the posters were designed by a Chinese-Australian artist, Badiucao, and they are a critique of China’s policies. Upon full understanding, I do not view these posters as racist ; they are political statements. – Mr WrightonRate it:

Such light! Such shade! I cannot tell, If here we live in heaven or hell. – BhartrihariRate it:
I am also fond of the central poem of this page, a short series of verses cursing a goose for pulling out the eye of Gwallawg, the figure after whom the poem has been named by scholars. – Myriah WilliamsRate it:
I am one of the scholars who believe that a person who doesn't have a sense of history cannot think properly, if you don't have history, you can do nothing. Sincerely, you remain poor. – Felix ChamiRate it:
I can't tell you. I don't know. There are a few scholars who say it will and others who say it's not likely to, but at a minimum, by the time it gets litigated, it will probably give some additional time while we're getting that $ 45 billion out to people who are in fact behind in the rent and don't have the money. – The PresidentRate it:
I have heard some of my Republican colleagues argue that this trial would be unconstitutional because Donald Trump is no longer in office, an argument that has been roundly repudiated, debunked by constitutional scholars left, right and center, and defies basiccommonsense, it makes nosensewhatsoever that a president — or any official — could commit a heinous crime against our country and then be permitted to resign so as to avoid accountability and a vote to disbar them from future office. It makes nosense. – Ron JohnsonRate it:
