Making

Benjamin Netanyahu Quote: “Certainly the international community is putting…”

Certainly the international community is putting a lot of pressure on Iran and making clear that its nuclear program must stop. If it stops with the sanctions, the combinations of sanctions, diplomacy, other pressures, I, as the prime minister of Israel, will be the happiest person in the world.

Angela Davis Quote: “But at the same time you…”

But at the same time you can’t assume that making a difference 20 years ago is going to allow you to sort of live on the laurels of those victories for the rest of your life.

Henry B. Eyring Quote: “The feeling of longing for home…”

The feeling of longing for home is born into us. That wonderful dream cannot become real without great faith – enough for the Holy Ghost to lead us to repentance, baptism, and the making and keeping of sacred covenants with God. This faith requires enduring bravely the trials of mortal life.

David Levering Lewis Quote: “1900 was a bit of mixed…”

1900 was a bit of mixed bag, it seems to me, on the one hand, because this is the year when this country becomes the premiere producer of manufactured goods. Clearly, a lot of people were making a lot of money, but it’s also a time that reflects the savaging of one of the deepest depressions.

September 18, 2021 1936, American, April 7, David Levering Lewis, Quotes by Historians

Caitlin Doughty Quote: “Vaults and caskets are not the…”

As an added bonus, vaults can be customized and sold at a markup. Faux marble? Bronze? Take your pick, family.
