September 11, 2008









Today, we gather to be reassured that God hears the lamenting and bitter weeping of Mother America because so many of her children are no more. Let us now seek that assurance in prayer for the healing of our grief stricken hearts, for the souls and sacred memory of those who have been lost. Let us also pray for divine wisdom as our leaders consider the necessary actions for national security, wisdom of the grace of God that as we act, we not become the evil we deplore.

- Rev. Nathan Baxter, Dean of Washington National Cathedral











You never have the wind with you - either it is against you or you're having a good day.

- Daniel Behrman, The Man Who Loved Bicycles











Nature made us individuals, as she did the flowers and the pebbles; but we are afraid to be peculiar, and so our society resembles a bag of marbles, or a string of mold candles. Why should we all dress after the same fashion? The frost never paints my windows twice alike.

- Lydia Maria Child











Think of bicycles as rideable art that can just about save the world.

- Grant Petersen
