May my food my body maintain, may my body my soul maintain, may my soul in deed and word give thanks for all things to the Lord. p. 35.
The only things which we may take with us from our life on earth are those which we have given away! p. 39
We imagine divine grace to be finite. For this reason we tremble. We tremble before making our choice in life, and after having made it again tremble in fear of having chosen wrong. But the moment comes when our eyes are opened, and we see and realize that grace is infinite. Grace demands nothing of us but that we shall await it with confidence and acknowledge it in gratitude. Grace makes no conditions and singles out none of us in particular; grace takes us all to its bosom and proclaims general amnesty. That which we have chosen is given us, and that which we have refused is, also and at the same time, granted us. p. 40
In this world anything is possible. p. 42.
A great artist is never poor. We have something of which other people know nothing. p. 47.

Helen was given in marriage by lottery among her suitors. Menelaus won.
Just then Agamemnon approached, favoring Odysseus with a dark glare. "Your bright idea, I suppose?" p. 70.
"Go on!" said Odysseus, daring to nudge Agamemnon in the ribs. "Marry Clytemnestra! What could possibly go wrong?" p. 72.
When the Greeks had been at Troy almost ten years, and the greatest heroes were dead:
Once more an agonizing stalemate loomed, and once more Agamemnon turned in frustration to his prophet Calchas.
"What do the swallows and sparrows tell you now, you old fraud?"
"Only a foolish leader blames his messengers, and the King of Men, the great one I serve, has never been a fool.
" … My lord, we need Philoctetes."
On Lemnos, Odysseus and Diomedes found Philoctetes, still in perpetual agony from the wound that would not heal. Seeing Odysseus, who had persuaded the Greeks to leave him there, he raised his bow.
"Go on," said Odysseus. "Shoot. I'm sure I deserve it. We left you to rot. Better we all die here forgotten. Why choose glory and fame in Troy when death awaits us whatever we do? Might as well end it here in this stinking lair as on the field of battle. One way we live forever in posterity--in statues, songs, and stories--the other we are forgotten. But so what? What has posterity ever done for us?"
"Damn you, Odysseus," gasped Philoctetes, "If we do die together here, I'll probably be cursed to spend the afterlife with you endlessly jabbering on in my ear." pp. 201-202.
A great story, well retold.
"Dark human passions of selfishness, fear, and hatred counterbalanced by kindness, friendship, love, and wisdom. The field is still open for someone to portray all that better than Homer, but so far on my journey through life I have yet to see it done." --Stephen Fry p. 241.

1978 marks a turning point in American racial history. Since then, every appeal for racial justice has been attacked for giving "special consideration" to "groups." The crucial debate on equal opportunity never really began. Carter's failure to focus attention on the serious questions raised by the concept of group opportunity ceded the moral high ground and the political majority to Ronald Reagan. The movement has never recovered. p. 196.
The attacks on disco gave respectable voice to the ugliest kinds of unacknowledged racism, sexism, and homophobia. After nearly a quarter century, white America had recovered its sense of self. p. 211.
In places like the South Bronx--and they were in every city--the gospel hopes and jazz visions of the sixties had faded away. What was left was a kind of blues you couldn't always distinguish from pure despair. The new world looked a lot like hell. By the time "The Message" started receiving airplay in 1982, black America was two years into the Reagan administration. The edge loomed close and it was a long long fall. p. 242.
When Reagan convinced us that empty nostalgia was preferable to grim realities, especially the realities of a black America sinking into profound social chaos and despair, we were in bad trouble. p. 245.
The Reagan Rules: pp. 248-249 *Reality is determined by image and anecdote. Reagan was master of transforming a single example, however far removed from any representative situation, into proof of a sweeping generality. When he was finished putting his spin on a situation, reality didn't get a hearing. A black woman who had been convicted of fraud in a case involving $8,000 was transformed into a "welfare queen" with a fleet of Cadillacs and a tax-free income of $150,000, proving that the poor were getting too much help. It sounded good; we bought it. *Too much money is never enough. The rich don't share. *Violence rules. People were sick of being pushed around by little countries like Vietnam and Iran and they were ready to prove they weren't going to take it anymore. */We/ deserve our success. /They/ deserve their failure.

This one shows that White mobs would've murdered many more civil-rights protesters if police hadn't protected the protesters. Also shows some of the splintering within the movement, over differing approaches.
November 10, 1960, diner sit-in in Nashville, met with White-on-Black violence. May through September 1961 freedom ride, DC to New Orleans by commercial bus. Whites firebombed one bus, and savagely beat the riders, in Alabama. Dr. Bergman suffered permanent brain damage and lifelong paralysis. A White mob would have continued beating the riders to death in Montgomery, Alabama, but Floyd Mann, Alabama's public safety director, fired his sidearm and threatened to shoot attackers. May 21, 1961, a White mob was attacking Dr. King's church, with 1500 people inside. Governor Patterson sent the Alabama National Guard to protect the church from the mob. Mississippi police jailed the freedom riders for 3 weeks. More riders kept coming. In Mississippi, 90% of Black families lived below the poverty line, and only 5% of eligible Blacks were registered to vote. May 3, 1963, Birmingham, AL police chief Bull Connor turned fire hoses and dogs on protestors. Sept. 15, 1963 White bombers murdered four little girls at church in Birmingham.

1964.07 Selma, Alabama police clubbed would-be voting registrants. Judge banned gatherings of more than three people in Selma. pp. 86-87. Protests stopped until Jan. 2, 1965, when Selma activists invited Dr. King to start a voting campaign. pp. 145-243. March 7, 1965 Bloody Sunday, police savagely club Selma-to-Montgomery marchers on the Edmund Pettus bridge in Selma. ABC cut into its movie, /Judgement at Nuremburg/, to show footage of the attack.

1964.07 Republican Party nominated anti-civil-rights Barry Goldwater as its presidential candidate. p. 103.
Denied voting in Mississippi, Blacks formed the Freedom Democratic Party, and challenged the Democratic Party's seating of its delegates at the Democratic convention. President Johnson made sure the White delegates were seated. Johnson still lost six states in the South, and still won the election in a 44-state-to-6-state landslide. pp. 97-127, 138.
There's also an excellent TV movie, /We Shall Not Be Moved/, about the Black Church's role in the Civil Rights Movement:
We Shall Not Be Moved The Untold Chapter in the Struggle for American Civil Rights 2001
Spiritual battle against prejudice and contempt.
“The battle was...not ours. It was the Lord’s.”—Rev. Abraham Lincoln Woods
Dr. King’s start:
In 1954, Martin Luther King, Jr., age 25, applied to be pastor of Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama, “where he could...finish his Ph.D. dissertation...and...learn...how to pastor a church. He did all of that. But about two weeks after he mailed in his dissertation, Rosa Parks sat down in the bus.”—Ambassador Andrew Young
Focuses on central battles:
1. Montgomery, Alabama bus boycott, Dec. 5, 1955–Dec. 20, 1956
Dec. 1, 1955, police arrested 42-year-old Rosa Parks for refusing to yield her seat in the front row of the colored section of a bus, to a white man.
“Ministers sold their membership on what they wanted them to do. ...They supported it 100 percent.”—Deacon R. D. Nesbitt, Sr.
Buses lost 30,000–40,000 fares daily.
Alabama court tried to halt car pools. U.S. Supreme Court declared bus segregation unconstitutional.
“In Montgomery: The movement got its leader, Martin Luther King. The movement got its method, nonviolent...resistance. And the movement brought to the fore...the political power and activism and religious enthusiasm of the African-American church.”—Dr. Wilson Fallin
2. Little Rock, Arkansas, school desegregation, 1957–1959
Little Rock was “more moderate” than other Southern cities: “fairly liberal.”
Sept. 4, 1957, Governor sent National Guard, keeping African-American students out of Little Rock Central High. White mob surrounds school.
“This guy to the left of me says, ‘We got us a Nigger right here.’...He’s got a rope around his shoulder.”—Melba Patillo Beals
Two weeks later, Governor withdrew National Guard. Students enter school, which is surrounded by mob.
“I heard them say, ‘It’s bad out there. We’re going to have to...let ‘em hang one...to get the other nine out.’”—Melba Patillo Beals
Eisenhower called Army to protect students.
“They assigned us each a guard. Personal bodyguard.”—Melba Patillo Beals
Governor, Sept. 1957: “We are now an occupied territory.”
“That...year...every day...you think you’re going to die.”—Melba Patillo Beals
“We got calls,...every night, that somebody was going to have acid thrown on ‘em,...or that they were not going to make it home the next day.”—Ernest Green
Next year, Little Rock closed all public high schools.
3. Birmingham, Alabama segregation
“Birmingham, Alabama was probably the most segregated city in the South.”—Dr. Wilson Fallin
Alabama outlawed NAACP. Rev. Fred Lee Shuttlesworth tried to integrate Phillips High School....He was beaten, with chains. His wife was stabbed. ...His home was bombed. He said, ‘If we die, then our lives will be one installment on the payment for freedom.’
Young people joined protest marches. They might get hurt....King said, ‘They’ve already been hurt. The Southern way of life, injustice, racism, has hurt ‘em.
“We had been beaten. We had been thrown in jail. We had been the victims of the dogs and the fire hose. . . .We thought that was a small price to pay, to change the world.”—Ambassador Andrew Young
4. 16th Street Baptist Church bombing, Birmingham, Alabama, 1963
“It was youth day. Most of our youth were dressed in white. ...The Sunday school lesson for the day was, ‘A Love that Forgives.’”—Carolyn McKinstry
“The children that had been in those Sunday school classes and left a little early to get dressed to take their part at the eleven o’clock worship service.”—Dr. John Cross, Former Pastor, 16th Street Baptist Church, Birmingham
“Four children in a ladies’ rest room, getting ready for a program.”—Josephine Marshall
“I could smell the smoke of the dynamite, and my heart was in my mouth.”— Rev. Abraham Lincoln Woods, Pastor, St. Joseph Baptist Church, Birmingham
The bodies of Denise, Carol, Addie Mae, and Cynthia were carried out of the rubble.
“And mothers were standing on the steps, pulling out their hair.”—Josephine Marshall
“the bomb that was heard around the world. ...The reaction of the rest of the world is what shamed the people of Birmingham.”—Carolyn McKinstry
In 1964, President Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act, forbidding discrimination in public accommodation.
5. Selma, Alabama, voting rights, 1965
Selma was majority Black. Black voting was suppressed with so-called “literacy tests”—such as, guess the number of jelly beans in a jar. If you guess wrong, you don’t vote. And with poll taxes.
In February, 1965, police killed a Black voting-rights marcher. March 7, 1965, police brutally attacked marchers at the Edmund Pettus bridge in Selma. Pictures went all over the world.
In 1965, President Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act.
“Like anybody, I would like to live a long life; longevity has its place. But I’m not concerned about that now. I just want to do God’s will. And He has allowed me to go up to the mountain. And I’ve looked over, and I’ve seen the promised land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight that we as a people will get to the promised land. So I’m happy tonight; I’m not worried about anything. I’m not fearing any man. Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord.”—Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., April 3, 1968

A glimpse of DA Life on Our Planet: My Witness Statement and A Vision for the Future, David Attenborough, 2020, 266pp., Dewey 508., ISBN 9781538719985
A glimpse of David Attenborough's career presenting nature shows, and of the concurrent destruction of the natural world.
It took a million years of unprecedented volcanic activity during the Permian to poison the ocean. We have begun to do so again in less than two hundred. By burning fossil fuels, we are releasing carbon dioxide captured by prehistoric plants over millions of years in a few decades. p. 89
Already in 2011 the world was 0.8ºC warmer on average than it was when I was born (1926). That is a speed of change that exceeds any that has happened in the last 10,000 years. p. 91
By 2011, the extent of the summer sea ice in the Arctic had shrunk by 30 percent in 30 years. p. 92
96 percent of the mass of all the mammals on Earth is made up of our bodies and those of the mammals that we raise to eat. p. 100. Nearly 80% of farmland worldwide is used for meat and dairy production (including feed crops). p. 169. 60% of world farmland is used to produce beef--which is only 2% of total human calorie consumption. p. 170.
Fossil fuels provide 85% of our global energy, as of 2019. pp. 138-139. Six of the ten largest corporations in the world are oil and gas companies. We're all dependent on fossil fuels. p. 141. We've increased global temperature by 1ºC from preindustrial levels. By 2030 we'll have released carbon enough to take it to 1.5ºC. Our generation is the first to understand the problem, and the last with any opportunity to do anything about it. Sweden's carbon tax reduced fuel use there. p. 142.
Plants and soils contain two to three times as much carbon as the atmosphere. By tearing down trees, burning forests, dredging wetlands and plowing wild grasslands, we have released two-thirds of this historic stored carbon to date. pp. 159-160.
No-fishing zones let fish stocks recover, and spill over into fishing zones. p. 149. One-third of the ocean should be no-fishing zones: the shallows. China, the EU, USA, South Korea and Japan pay fishing fleets subsidies to keep fishing even when there are too few fish to be profitable. p. 153. Peak catch was mid-1990s. p. 154.
World population reached 4 billion in 1975, and has been increasing by 1 billion every 12 years since:

Somewhat abridged compilation of three books Attenborough wrote of his trips to Pacific islands, Madagascar, and Australia, 1959–1963.
In New Guinea, hSomewhat abridged compilation of three books Attenborough wrote of his trips to Pacific islands, Madagascar, and Australia, 1959–1963.
In New Guinea, he meets isolated tribespeople. Each valley is home to a separate tribe: they had no peaceful contact with neighbors. There are hundreds of mutually unintelligible languages on the island. Only recently had Australia, then governing, established police and ended cannibalism and headhunting.
Australian aborigines can survive in their desert where outsiders die: the natives know where and how to get water.
Madagascar’s animals are unique. Many are found nowhere else. Closest relatives tend to be South American....more

This volume covers our hero's start as a junior officer in the British navy, early 1794 age 17 to, apparently, early 1800 age 23. Wikipedia's fictional biography: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horat...
Chapters are episodes: 1 The Even Chance 2 The Cargo of Rice 3 The Penalty of Failure 4 The Man Who Felt Queer 5 The Man Who Saw God 6 The Frogs and the Lobsters 7 The Spanish Galleys 8 The Examination for Lieutenant 9 Noah's Ark 10 The Duchess and the Devil
There's a terrific set of eight TV movies of these stories, starring Ioan Gruffudd. This book comprises the events of the first four movies:
Life in the Navy, though it seemed to move from one crisis to another, was really one continuous crisis; even while dealing with one emergency it was necessary to be making plans to deal with the next. p. 59.
