The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
- Ezekiel 25:17
A popular workplace quote:
"If at first you don't succeed
Destroy all evidence that you even tried".
:D
There's another along those lines which goes something like:
"If at first you don't succeed, try again. After that give up - maybe you just aren't cut out for it."
:wink:
One from Thurber:
"Well, if I called the wrong number, why did you answer the phone?"

It is. :lol:
I just like how it is written. I like it as an "overall statement". I'm am by no means passing judgement of saying anything religious.
Mike, only the bold part of that is Ezekiel 25:17, and it's misquoted. The rest of it's not in that chapter at all. Here, in the King James version, (the closest Bible that I picked up) is Ezekiel 25:17:
"And I will execute great vengeance upon them with furious rebukes; and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them."
Nothing's in there about anyone attempting to poison and destroy "my brothers." The subjects of God's wrath in that verse were the Philistines, BTW. I don't recognize that un-bolded stuff ahead of it as being Biblical text.
Not a religious observation, one about accuracy of quoting.
:D
