Tradition is but a meteor, which, if once it falls, cannot be rekindled.

The mammogram discovered a tiny tumor, and it was so small that they were able to take it out very easily. I had a lumpectomy.

The old international order passed away as suddenly, as unexpectedly, and as completely as if it had been wiped out by a gigantic flood, by a great tempest, or by a volcanic eruption. The old world order died with the setting of that day's sun and a new world order is being born while I speak, with birth-pangs so terrible that it seems almost incredible that life could come out of such fearful suffering and such overwhelming sorrow.
