It is true that traditional Christianity is losing some of its appeal among Americans, but that is a religious, not political, matter.

His rod reversed, and backward mutters of dissevering power. ~John Milton
#quotes #john-milton #power
He was welcome everywhere he went, and was well-aware of his inability to tolerate solitude. He felt no inclination to be alone and avoided it as far as possible; he didn't really want to become any better acquainted with himself. He knew that if he wanted to show his talents to best advantage, he needed to strike sparks off other people to fan the flames of warmth and exuberance in his heart. On his own he was frosty, no use to himself at all, like a match left lying in its box. ~Stefan Zweig
