...would be lacking a fundamental faith in the wonder-working of this University if I were not convinced you will find, in retrospect, your time in college to have been extraordinarily maturing and rewarding. Difficulty brings self-knowledge. Out of trouble springs self-knowledge. Out of trouble springs inner strength and self-renewal. We see now in part only through the darkened glass. It will be your task to help make that vision clearer for yourself and for those near and dear to you through courage, faith, hope and love which have sustained others before you through trials every...
This idea (the "Pope John" theory as it is called in the inner circles of Harvard's search committee) has been neither heralded or rejected to date. Should the Corporation not find an ideal candidate in the prescribed age range of 40-55 years old, it might choose an older man to sit at the tophis fill of student crises equally as much as students have had their fill...
...Sainte Colombe's mentor was Pierre Janet, a respected French physician and psychologist. It had occurred to Janet, and one or two others before him, that if handwriting could reveal the secrets of the inner self, it might be possible to change the self by changing the handwriting.

Bourgeois Banality. Speer was a strange figure among the crowd of beer-drinking gangsters who made up most of Hitler's inner councils. He came from a fastidious upper-middle-class background and joined the Nazi Party early in 1931, after hearing Hitler address a meeting of Berlin students and professors. The decision, Speer insists, was casual and apolitical. He knew little of Hitler's program and did not understand the seriousness of the Nazis' antiSemitism. Incredibly, during a dozen years of continual association with Hitler -first as architect-in-chief, then as wartime Minister of Armaments...
