This is puzzling to an outsider conscious of the classic tradition of liberalism, because it is clear that these Democrats who are left-of-center are at opposite poles from the liberal Jefferson, who held that the best government was the least government.

In fact it has caused us to give serious thought to moving our residence south, because it is not easy for the most objective Southerner to sit calmly by when his host is telling a roomful of people that the only way to deal with Southerners who oppose integration is to send in troops and shoot the bastards down.

Had the situation been reversed, had, for instance, England been the enemy in 1898 because of issues of concern chiefly to New England, there is little doubt that large numbers of Southerners would have happily put on their old Confederate uniforms to fight as allies of Britain.

But it is more than irony: one of the main reasons why nationalism is no longer a tenable concept is because it has spread throughout the planet.

The `` approximate '' is important, because even after the order of the work has been established by the chance method, the result is not inviolable.

Often it is recognized that all the details of the pattern may not be essential to the outcome but, because the pattern was empirically determined and not developed through theoretical understanding, one is never quite certain which behavior elements are effective, and the whole pattern becomes ritualized.

Yet often fear persists because, even with the most rigid ritual, one is never quite free from the uneasy feeling that one might make some mistake or that in every previous execution one had been unaware of the really decisive act.

Or is it relevant because it teaches us something useful to know about ourselves??

I knew that a conversation with the author would not settle such questions, because a man is not the same as his writing: in the last analysis, the questions had to be settled by the work itself.

I suggested that one must let it in because it is the truth, but Beckett did not take to the word truth.

That is why the form itself becomes a preoccupation, because it exists as a problem separate from the material it accommodates.

It is because there is not only darkness but also light that our situation becomes inexplicable.

If they avoid the use of the pungent, outlawed four-letter word it is because it is taboo ; ;

Jazz is good not only because it promotes wholeness but because of its decided sexual effect.

It is worth dwelling in some detail on the crisis of this story, because it brings together a number of characteristic elements and makes of them a curious, riddling compound obscurely but centrally significant for Mann's work.

In spots such as the elbows and knees the second skin is worn off and I realized the aborigines were much darker than they appeared ; ;

It is said that, even at the present stage of Southern urbanization, such a city as Atlanta is not distinctly unlike Columbus or Trenton.

Has the agrarian tradition become such an addiction that the switch to urbanism is somehow dreaded or unwanted??

and the success of such an endeavor is, as suggested above, glaringly rare.

Obviously, such a Northern tourist's purpose is somewhat akin to a child's experience with Disneyland: he wants to see a world of make-believe.

Yet his concern even here is with a slowly changing socio-economic order in general, and he never deals with such specific aspects of this change as the urban and industrial impact.

For the family is the simplest example of just such a unit, composed of people, which gives us both some immunity from, and a way of dealing with, other people.

We are desperately in the need of such invention, for man is still very much at the mercy of man.

It only means that there will be new form, and that this form will be of such a type that it admits the chaos and does not try to say that the chaos is really something else.

Within this notion clarity is possible, but for us who are neither Greek nor Jansenist there is not such clarity.

All such imitations of negative quality have given rise to a compensatory response in the form of a heroic and highly individualistic humanism: if man can neither know nor love reality as it is, he can at least invent an artistic `` reality '' which is its own world and which can speak to man of purely personal and subjective qualities capable of being known and worthy of being loved.

Whitehead contends that the human way of understanding existence as a unity of interlocking and interdependent processes which constitute each other and which cause each other to be and not to be is possible only because the basic form of such an understanding, for all its vagueness and tendency to mistake the detail, is initially given in the way man feels the world.

After how many generations is such wealth ( mounting all the while through the manipulations of high finance ) purified of taint??

It consists of fragmentary personal revelations, such as `` The Spark '': `` There is a spark dwells deep within my soul.

Since the hazards of poor communication are so great, p can be justified as a habitable site only on the basis of unusual productivity such as is made available by a waterfall for milling purposes, a mine, or a sugar maple camp.

Noting such evidence is the first step ; ;

There is no justification for such misrepresentation.

But what a super-Herculean task it is to winnow anything of value from the mud-beplastered arguments used so freely, particularly since such common use is made of cliches and stereotypes, in themselves declarations of intellectual bankruptcy.

Yet the attitude that the fate of the Presidency demands in such a situation is quite distinct from the simple courage that can proceed with battles to be fought, regardless of the consequences.

On the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of matzah to the LORD.

Matzo or matzah (; with many other spellings in English, plural matzot ) is an unleavened bread traditionally eaten by Jews during the week-long Passover holiday, when eating chametz — bread and other food which is made with leavened grain — is forbidden according to Jewish law.

The Passover Seder meal is full of symbols of salvation, including the opening of the door for Elijah and the closing line, “ Next year in Jerusalem ,” but the use of matzah is the oldest symbol of salvation in the Seder.

The precise detailed religious requirements for matzah are not universally agreed upon ; for example there is disagreement over what grains may be used, whether matzah which is wetted after being baked then becomes chametz or not, and so on.

At the Passover seder, it is customary to eat matzah made of flour and water only ; matzah containing eggs, wine, or fruit juice in addition to water is not acceptable for use at the seder, although acceptable during the remaining days of the holiday.

Although most people have a clear idea of matza as similar to crackers, there is no requirement that matzah be crisp for any purpose, including the seder.

A problem with this matzah before the introduction of freezing is that it did not keep for more than a day or two, being subject to staling like any soft bread, not a problem with hard matzah.

However, soft matzah freezes well, and is more practical than it was.

Hard shmura matzah is often a round hand-made matzah about a foot in diameter ; machine-made hard matzah is usually square and much smaller.

Organic wheat matzah is also available.
