new dawn
I have consulted my pride, whether, after a rival's possession, I ought to ruin all my peace for a woman that another has been more blest in, though no man ever loved as I did: but love, victorious love! o’erthrows all that, and tells me, it is his nature never to remember; he still looks forward from the present hour, expecting still new dawns, new rising happiness; never looks back, never regards what is past, and left behind him, but buries and forgets it quite in the hot fierce pursuit of joy before him:— (Thomas Otway, The Works of Thomas Otway, « To Madam —— [Elizabeth Barry]. », for T. Turner, , (successor to John Mackinlay), Londres, 1813, page 317)
More and more of us are living active lives as a consequence of life-saving treatments. Impulsive negative responses to these new dawns are unbecoming of the human spirit. That so many of them are derived from religious beliefs should be, and is here, a concern to other religious believers who hold that the negativity is ill-founded.— (R. John Elford, A Glass Darkly: Medicine and Theology in Further Dialogue, Peter Lang(en), série « New International Studies in Applied Ethics », Berne, 2010, ISBN 978-3-03911-936-3, page 1)
