Ascending Phase

Famous quotes containing the words ascending and/or phase:

    To do good is like ascending a mountain; to do evil as easy as following an avalanche.
    Chinese proverb.

    This is certainly not the place for a discourse about what festivals are for. Discussions on this theme were plentiful during that phase of preparation and on the whole were fruitless. My experience is that discussion is fruitless. What sets forth and demonstrates is the sight of events in action, is living through these events and understanding them.
    Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
