The Rite of Spring: Part I (Adoration of the Earth) : Introduction
He sought not to illustrate the pleasant arrival of spring: the trite images of the lovely Month of May and buds opening but rather a more elemental spring: that of glaciers calving and buds struggling forth from the hardened soil.

A Letter on Reading – In War Time
To enjoy a book like that thoroughly I find I have to treat it as a sort of hobby and set about it seriously. I begin by making a map on one of the end leafs: then I put in a genealogical tree or two. Then I put a running headline at the top of each page; finally I index at the end all the passages I have for any reason underlined. I often wonder-considering people enjoy themselves developing photos or making scrap-books-why so few people make a hobby of their reading in this way. Many an otherwise dull book which I had to read have I enjoyed in this way, with a fine-nibbed pen in my hand: one is making something all the time and a book so read acquires the charm of a toy without losing that of a book.

7 Suggestions
And if we’re being honest, I think most of us strongly suspect that vice is more fun than virtue. “Being good” is something we do to avoid punishment in the afterlife; all things being equal, we would prefer to sin. In other words, we don’t believe that anyone could delight in God’s statutes (Psalm 118:16). We’re afraid we won’t be happy. In other words, we don’t trust our Father.
