Quote of the Week– Change

I beg you, do not be unchangeable.

Do not believe that you alone can be right.

The man who thinks that,

The man who maintains that only he has the power

to reason correctly, the gift to speak, the soul–

A man like that, when you know him, turns out empty.

(Greek philosopher Sophocles)

Quote of the Week–Music

Bach gave us God’s word,

Mozart gave us God’s laughter,

Beethoven gave us God’s fire,

God gave us music that we might pray without words.
