Here is your "quote of the week", formely known as "G.K. Chesterton Mondays"...
"Moderate strength is shown in violence, supreme strength is shown in levity" -G.K. Chesterton 1908
I don't really know what this means but it sounds profound.

I think it means that human retaliation is way overdone at times and when we realize the big picture of it all, little things of war and violence arent really prevelant to the things that matter. Strength is shown through the understanding and comprhension of the bigger picture. When people are able to take a situation in this life that usually most would expect a reaction of violence, and make it something that doesnt have enough power to tear you down, that's when people show the lightness of it all and the strength of contentment.
