Speaker Died

“Good as is discourse, silence is better, and shames it. The length of the discourse indicates the distance of thought betwixt the speaker and the hearer. If they were at a perfect understanding in any part, no words would be necessary thereon. If at one in all parts, no words would be suffered.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“The very word “Christianity” is a misunderstanding—there was really only one Christian, and he died on the cross. The “evangel” died on the cross.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
