Original Thread: KINGDOM COME: An Epic Paradox Mega-Game 1187-1954 A.D.

 



quote:

"Now that the city was taken it was well worth all our previous labours and hardships to see the devotion of the pilgrims at the Holy Sepulchre. How they rejoiced and exulted and sang a new song to the Lord! A new day, new joy, new and perpetual gladness, the consummation of our effort and devotion drew forth from all new words and new music. This day, I say, will be famous in all future ages. This day, I say, marks the justification of all Christianity, the humiliation of paganism, and the renewal of our faith. 'This is the day that the Lord hath made, let us rejoice and be glad in it.' For on this day the Lord Revealed himself to his people and blessed them."
-Raymond of Aguilers on the capture of Jerusalem


quote:

"Of the life of man the duration is but a point, its substance streaming away, its perception dim, the fabric of the entire body prone to decay, and the soul a vortex, and fortune incalculable, and fame uncertain. In a word all things of the body are as a river, and the things of the soul as a dream and a vapour; and life is a warfare and a pilgrim's sojourn, and fame after death is only forgetfulness."
-Marcus Aurelius
