In our system leadership is by consent, not command. To lead a President must persuade. Personal contacts and experiences help shape his thinking. They can be critical to his persuasiveness and thus to his leadership.

Donald Rumsfeld

With science fiction I think we are preparing ourselves for contact with them, whoever they may be.

Dwight Schultz

In Christianity neither morality nor religion come into contact with reality at any point.

Friedrich Nietzsche

We cannot safely assume that other people's minds work on the same principles as our own. All too often, others with whom we come in contact do not reason as we reason, or do not value the things we value, or are not interested in what interests us.

Isabel Briggs Myers

In other words, knowledge of the external world begins with an immediate utilisation of things, whereas knowledge of self is stopped by this purely practical and utilitarian contact.

Jean Piaget

To excel the past we must not allow ourselves to lose contact with it; on the contrary, we must feel it under our feet because we raised ourselves upon it.

Josi Ortega y Gasset

Competence, like truth, beauty, and contact lenses, is in the eye of the beholder.

Laurence J. Peter

It's hard to say exactly what it is about face-to-face contact that makes deals happen, but whatever it is, it hasn't yet been duplicated by technology.

Paul Graham

You can judge your age by the amount of pain you feel when you come in contact with a new idea.

Pearl S. Buck

New Yorkers are so impersonal, if it wasn't for muggings there wouldn't be any contact at all!

Robert Orben

By learning to contact, listen to, and act on our intuition, we can directly connect to the higher power of the universe and allow it to become our guiding force.

Shakti Gawain

Man should not strive to eliminate his complexes, but to get in accord with them; they are legitimately what directs his contact in the world.

Sigmund Freud

Skill is fine, and genius is splendid, but the right contacts are more valuable than either.

Sir Archibald Mclndoe

The chain of friendship, however bright, does not stand the attrition of constant close contact.

Sir Walter Scott

Love lives on propinquity, but dies on contact.

Thomas Hardy

Speech is civilization itself. The word, even the most contradictory word, preserves contact - it is silence which isolates.

Thomas Mann

1242. Your Wake-up Call

Philippians 3:1-11

Sermon

King Duncan

... a doctor since he wouldn’t live to fulfill that dream. Stephen’s blog inspired people around the world. He had the opportunity to speak at numerous places, and even met British Prime Minister David Cameron. He had an amazing impact on everyone who came into contact with him. Unfortunately, Stephen passed away in 2014 at the age of 19, but people continued to donate to the Teenage Cancer Trust in his honor. As of 2017, £5 million had been donated in honor and memory of Stephen Sutton. (4) It is amazing ...

1243. Remember to Say Thank You

Deuteronomy 8:1-20

Sermon

King Duncan

... a long, grueling master’s degree program. His wife planned a special party so many of their friends could come and help him celebrate with cake, refreshments, banners, streamers, swimming, croquet, and other yard games. Her husband, though, had other ideas. “He secretly contacted each person who had received an invitation and revealed his plan to make the party a surprise in honor of her. Yes, there would be banners, streamers, and all the rest, but they would bear her name, not his.” He wanted to ...

1244. Jesus' Advance Man

John 1:6-8; 19-28

Sermon

King Duncan

... six-month younger cousin Jesus spent a great deal of time together? Perhaps they played together and fished together and did all the things young men like to do. Might this not explain the kind of man John the Baptist became? He was in intimate contact with Jesus. Cousins can certainly have that kind of influence on each other. Might this also not explain John the Baptist’s reaction when he saw Jesus come out with the others to be baptized? Matthew tells us that John was reluctant to baptize his younger ...

1245. You're Never Too Old

Genesis 17:1-27

Sermon

King Duncan

... and microbiologist, who won the Nobel Prize for medicine when he discovered penicillin. As most of you are aware, Fleming made this discovery quite by accident. One day he happened to notice that the fungus on a certain glass plate had died when it came into contact with some mold that was on the same plate. Fleming was a very positive, forward-looking person who followed up on his observations. Most people would just wash off mold. We usually don’t see much good coming from mold that we find on something ...

1246. Rising to New Life

1 Corinthians 15:1-11

Sermon

Richard Gribble

... to realize their own brokenness and their need to seek reconciliation and assistance. In a very real way, Alcoholic Anonymous has been a source of resurrection and new life for many. Prior to their meeting, Bill and Dr. Bob had each been in contact with the Oxford Group, a non-alcoholic fellowship that emphasized universal spiritual values in daily life. In New York under this spiritual influence and with the help of a friend, Bill W. had achieved sobriety and was able to maintain recovery by assisting ...

1247. Be Healed

Mark 1:29-39

Sermon

Michael L. Sherer

... mentioned in this text. There is an ongoing need — and possibility — for the healing of relationships. Any caring Christian can be a part of such a ministry. Pastors enable it through counseling (and members who are hurting should not hesitate to contact their local clergy for help). But lay folk can also be instruments of healing. Broken relationships abound. Individuals who know how to listen, speak wisely — and sometimes lay hands upon those in stressed relationships — can help make whole what is ...

John 3:1-17

Sermon

King Duncan

... hired to create a piece of art to be displayed at the CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia. This was a big commission! What an honor to create a unique piece of art for the CIA. Sanborn thought he would have a little fun with this project. He contacted Edward Scheidt, the retired chairman of the CIA’s Cryptographic Center. Scheidt is an expert in encryption and cryptology. Sanborn wanted Scheidt to help him create a message in code for his CIA art piece. On Nov. 3, 1990, Jim Sanborn’s piece of art was ...

1249. The Vine

John 15:1-8

Sermon

Lori Wagner

... hardy and difficult to get rid of. Many are poisonous, especially to pets. Vines often can be flowering, such as Wisteria or Virginia Creeper. Some do not flower but are equally as poisonous, such as ivy, oak, or sumac. Some of you may have come in contact with one of those in your lifetime. But vines also can be fruit-bearing. In fact, some of our favorite fruits are fruits of the vine –tomatoes, watermelon, kiwi, and of course our all time favorite, grapes. Grapes not only are delicious to eat, but they ...

1250. Following God's Plan

1 John 5:1-6

Sermon

Richard Gribble

... to whatever it is we do on a daily basis. If we bring our faith, we will indeed show our love for God and God’s people. We must manifest in word and action the teachings and mission of Jesus Christ to all with whom we have contact on a daily basis. This is the life of discipleship to which, as Saint John indicates, we have all been called. The privilege of being a contemporary disciple of Jesus necessitates, as do all great privileges, significant responsibility. We simply cannot shirk the task we have ...
