Name
(page 3)
First of all my real full name is Lloyd Vernet Bridges III.
As we were baptized, so we profess our belief. As we profess our belief, so also we offer praise. As then baptism has been given us by the Savior, in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost, so, in accordance with our baptism, we make the confession of the creed, and our doxology in accordance with our creed.
Were I called on to define, very briefly, the term Art, I should call it 'the reproduction of what the Senses perceive in Nature through the veil of the soul'. The mere imitation, however accurate, of what is in Nature, entitles no man to the sacred name of 'Artist'.
You may call God love, you may call God goodness. But the best name for God is compassion.
I can't believe that people actually know my first and last name. I think it's really, really, gosh-darn neat.
When I leave this world, I don't want to leave just having a well-known name but having made a difference.
I love the name of honor, more than I fear death.
