QUOTE II:  "It was easy enough to be decent when all was going your way.  It was another matter to be decent when all hell was breaking loose."  same source
 
QUOTE III:  "Even the most magnificent creatures know how to rest.  Pegasus knows how to soar and chase and glide.  But he also knows how to be at peace."
 
IN OTHER NEWS:

 
This was sent in by Ellen:  "Chestertonian friends, Check out the March/April 2014 GILBERT magazine, page 29. Our own Anita Gorman has her fanciful story published: "The Ghost of Alexander Pope"!  Anita shared this story with us at our Warren Chesterton Society meeting just a couple of months ago. It was around the time we were reading a Chesterton essay decrying Free Verse and the lack of rhyme in modern poetry. You will agree that Anita's story fits the spirit of Chesterton quite well! And, it is truly a fun and entertaining read."
 
Ray sent this picture in of St. Sebastian.  Rather cool I think.  Thanks!
 
Mary sent in this link to a blog telling the story of a Catholic Church in Chicago that was saved from the wrecking ball.  Thanks!
