Quotes of Note

You're born a male but you have to CHOOSE to be a man" - Herm Edwards

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" - Unknown

"They err who think Santa Clause comes down through the chimney; he really enters through the heart." - Mrs. Paul M. Ell

"Thankfully, our true roots are in heritage and not things. I just need to keep reminding myself that things are only reminders of heritage." - Keetha Broyles, June 21, 2010

"Tears lubricate the soul." - from "Finding Buck McHenry"

"Somehow you must come to understand that God is love, that love is the proof of God, and forgiveness is the proof of love." - The Priest in "Levi's Will" by W. Dale Cramer

"The truth about a man is in what he does, not what he says." - W. Dale Cramer in "Levi's Will"

"Fairy Tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." - G. K. Chesterton

Visiting the Famous Golden Dome

This was my first visit to the campus of Notre Dame. I'm giving it a huge WOW!!

Of course MY first priority was not academic. I'm sure you don't have to think toooooo hard to figure out - - -

That my first priority involved a sport in which the officials commonly make THIS symbol, and even my little two-year-old Grandson knows what it means!!!

Then we visited the book store.

Double WOW!

I'm sure as you peruse these photos - - -

You will find a whole new meaning - - -

To the phrase: "These hallowed halls."

Keetha Broyles said...: I didn't get a picture of any of them - - - but ALL of the buildings are built in a very "cathedrally" style and all are covered with the same sand colored brick/cut stone (not sure which it was). Well, you can KINDA see it on the building with the large Mosaic.

I will say this - - - it was a VERY beautiful campus.; October 3, 2008 at 7:08 PM
