“A wise and frugal Government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned.

“Like all Xhosa children, I acquired knowledge mainly through observation. We were meant to learn through imitation and emulation, not through questions.

In my household, questions were considered a nuisance; adults imparted information as they considered necessary.”
Nelson Mandela

God loves, delights, gets pleasure, rejoices, enjoys, and even laughs!
Rick Warren
