Everyone thinks that a new place or a new identity will jumpstart a new life.
Today is a new day for the land.
People go to LA to "find themselves", they come to New York to become someone new.
From the top of the quarry cliffs, one could see the New Jersey suburbs bordered by the New York City skyline.
You cannot go back and start a brand new beginning, but today is a new day and you can start a brand new thing.
Sanctification is the outcome and inseparable consequence of regeneration. He who is born again and made a new creature receives a new nature and a new principle and always lives a new life.
Fall in love with a dog, and in many ways you enter a new orbit, a universe that features not just new colors but new rituals, new rules, a new way of experiencing attachment.
I love filming in New York. I love New York movies, too. I just like it when people can take New York and make it their own, because there are so many different New Yorks.
The 1970s was the decade of liberation, of anger at injustice and demands for recognition and rights. But over time, the demand for specific rights degraded into a generalized sense of entitlement, the demand for specific recognition into a generaliz...
Is our rational and self-reliant generation really supposed to accept the idea that God the Almighty not only created the universe but, interestingly enough, also has a stake in our lives?

The maker of laws must be severe; who executes them must be generous.
One bad general is better than two good ones.
There is nothing better than a rich wife and a generous mother-in-law.
