@CassyWearsHeels 1) I could care less about this woman's panties. What fascinates me is what's written all over her face:

"Blessed Job 3:12"

Why was I laid on my mother’s lap?
Why did she nurse me at her breasts?
@CassyWearsHeels 2) These lines are from a longer lament in which a grieving Job, much like George Bailey in "It's A Wonderful Life" (1946) rues the day he was born.
@CassyWearsHeels 3) Why wasn’t I born dead?
Why didn’t I die as I came from the womb?
Why was I laid on my mother’s lap?
Why did she nurse me at her breasts?
Had I died at birth, I'd now be at peace.
I'd be asleep and at rest.
@CassyWearsHeels 4) "Why wasn’t I buried like a stillborn child,
like a baby who never lives to see the light?
For in death the wicked cause no trouble,
and the weary are at rest.
@CassyWearsHeels 5) "Even captives are at ease in death,
with no guards to curse them.
Rich and poor are both there,
and the slave is free from his master."

@FollowingtheT @StatesRe @RikLesel @LiveFreeorDie3 @ApocalypseGal1 @statere 1) Luke 18:9-14 Then Jesus told this story to some who had great confidence in their own righteousness and scorned everyone else:

“Two men went to the Temple to pray. One was a Pharisee, and the other was a despised tax collector.
@FollowingtheT @StatesRe @RikLesel @LiveFreeorDie3 @ApocalypseGal1 @statere 2) "The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed this prayer:

"‘I thank you, God, that I am not like other people—cheaters, sinners, adulterers. I’m certainly not like that tax collector! I fast twice a week, and I give you a tenth of my income.’
@FollowingtheT @StatesRe @RikLesel @LiveFreeorDie3 @ApocalypseGal1 @statere 3) "But the tax collector stood at a distance and dared not even lift his eyes to heaven as he prayed. Instead, he beat his chest in sorrow, saying, ‘O God, be merciful to me, for I am a sinner.’

@AngelicaKamen @StopAntisemites 1) The Prophet Said There'd Be Times Like These
Isaiah 59: 4-19

No one enters suit justly,
no one goes to law honestly;
they rely on empty pleas, they speak lies,
they conceive mischief & bring forth iniquity.
@AngelicaKamen @StopAntisemites 2) They hatch adders’ eggs,
they weave the spider’s web;
he who eats their eggs dies,
& from one which is crushed a viper is hatched.
Their webs will not serve as clothing;
men will not cover themselves with what they make.
@AngelicaKamen @StopAntisemites 3) Their works are works of iniquity,
& deeds of violence are in their hands.
Their feet run to evil,
& they make haste to shed innocent blood;
their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity,
desolation and destruction are in their highways.

1) "To Comrades of the Spartacus League" -- Leon Trotsky (3/9/19) Excerpts

"Kautsky understood the proletariat, having seized revolutionary power, would not stake the fate of the Revolution upon the fleeting moods of the least conscious & still unawakened masses of the moment...
2) " ... but would, on the contrary, transform the entire state power concentrated in its hands into a mighty apparatus of enlightenment and organization of the most backward and most ignorant peasant masses.
3) "But Kautsky refused to issue a certificate of baptism to the Russian Revolution because it was not legally certified by the political department of bourgeois democracy. An astonishing fact! What incredible debasement of Marxism!"

@glenn_hughes 1) "I Don't Want to Live That Way Again" (1996)


Luke 15:20-24
While he was yet at a distance, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and embraced him & kissed him ...
@glenn_hughes 2) "And the son said, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you; I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’ But the father said to his servants, ‘Bring quickly the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet ...
@glenn_hughes 3) " ... and bring the fatted calf and kill it, and let us eat and make merry; for this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found.’"

@seanmdav "Niagara Falls! Slowly I turned ... step by step ... inch by inch ..."

A sketch in which a wronged man recounts to an hapless stranger his memory of the day he took revenge on his enemy – & becomes so engrossed in his own tale that he attacks the man to whom he is speaking.
@seanmdav 1) Intel Striptease Lays Bare
Hillary's Plan to Decapitate Trump

In "Sisters of Salome," author Toni Bentley recounts how Mesopotamian Goddess Inanna had to "relinquish her ... robes at each of the seven gates to the underworld until she stood naked in the 'land of no return.'
@seanmdav 2) Oscar Wilde, in his play "Salomé," evokes the Inanna myth in Salomé's Dance of the 7 Veils for the head of John the Baptist, a "symbolic descent to the underworld of the unconscious, a ceremony that equates stripping naked to being in a state of truth, the ultimate unveiling."
