Quote of the Day

She's safe just like I promised. She's all set to marry Norrington just like she promised, and you get to die for her just like you promised... So we're all men of our word really... except Elizabeth who is, in fact a woman. - Pirates of the Caribbean

When the prime minister spoke about some hopes that have been disappointed, I think that was putting it mildly. I think many people will look back on the last 10 years of dashed hopes and big disappointments, of so much promised and so little delivered

If I and Seb Coe were to go to see Jacques Rogge and the IOC and say 'we know we promised you an athletics stadium but we would much rather have West Ham in there as they would make more money out of it', they would simply say 'we have a contract and you can get lost'. The deal we made is that it's an athletics stadium and we have a legally-binding contract which is more like an international treaty.

It is now several months since I promised to give you my reasons for preferring the Bible as a schoolbook to all other compositions. Before I state my arguments, I shall assume the five following propositions:

1 . That Christianity is the only true and perfect religion; and that in proportion as mankind adopts its principles and obeys its precepts they will be wise and happy.

2. That a better knowledge of this religion is to be acquired by reading the Bible than in any other way.

3. That the Bible contains more knowledge necessary to man in his present state than any other book in the world.

4. That knowledge is most durable, and religious instruction most useful, when imparted in early life.

5. That the Bible, when not read in schools, is seldom read in any subsequent period of life.
- Benjamin Rush, Essays, pp. 93-113, 'A Defence of the Use of the Bible as a School Book'.
