As R. W. Emerson says, by necessity, by proclivity, and by delight, we all quote. As B. Disraeli says, the wisdom of the wise and the experience of the ages are perpetuated by quotations. Confucius and Lao-tzu are famous philosophers in ancient China, who still have a great influence over modern Chinese. Besides, many Chinese proverbs and idioms also keep swaying modern Chinese. A lot of Western proverbs and quotations also make a dent in modern Chinese. One of the main purposes of my book is to promote the understanding between the East and the West. My book consists of hundreds Chinese and Western quotations and proverbs, which are witty, inspirational, self-improving, or humorous. As the Talmud says, a quotation at the right moment is like bread to the famished. G. B. Shaw says, " I often quote myself. It adds spice to my conversation." As R. W. Emerson says, conversation is an art in which a man has all mankind for competitors. Pierre de Beaumarchais says, " It isn't necessary to understand things in order to argue about them. Everyone has got a right to say or do whatever he or she prefers, which could honor or humiliate him or her, you know. Life is changeable. Don't grieve for the past. Learn from the past and improve. Don't fear the future. Challenging the present problems, you'll have a sweet memory and make a better prepara- tion for the future. My book also shows the pronunciations of pinyin Chinese. The complete title of my book is " A WINTER-BORN SHEEP BLEATING IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA" because I was born in 1943, named "yang2 nian2" meaning the "year of sheep" according to Chinese zodiac. In Southern California, a remarkably multicultural area where I've lived for more than 30 years, the grass flourishes in rainy winter. As F. Allen says, California is a fine place to live in--if you happen to be an orange.

Christians willing to look with honest eyes at challenges we face as believers in corporate church life today will find an advocate here. We are faithful people attending Bible-believing churches, yet there is a disconnect between wanting to please the Lord and achieving full stature in the body of Christ through the church. Excellent intentions fail to materialize into spiritual development. Our efforts sputter into lackluster Christian experiences, a far cry from the abundant life we were promised. Doing more or trying harder to reach goals is not the answer. Goals must be re-examined in light of scripture. Confounding bigger with better, casting a blind eye to the schism between Evangelicals and Pentecostals, settling for less, tolerating toxic doctrines that misrepresent the heart of God to the people, subsisting on spiritual junk food -- whatever erosion and error we permit will define the ultimate quality of our lives in Christ. Carol Demong (as Carol Nelson) has published a young adult Christian novel through David C. Cook, and has published numerous articles when she worked as a staff writer for Bridge Magazine, an Oregon-based Christian periodical. She has an M.A. in English literature and curriculum, and has taught writing and literary analysis in a variety of contexts. Since her recent retirement from the University of California at San Diego, she has begun writing full-time. In addition to the essays presented here and the articles and novel mentioned above, she has written Bible curriculum for women's studies, as well as short stories, poetry and other essays. She is a member of the San Diego Christian Writer's Guild. She lives with her husband and grandson in the vicinity of her extended family in Southern California. Other interests include playing the piano, research, and cooking.

One of the New York Times’s Ten Best Books of the Year: These traditional stories of Italy, retold by a literary master, are “a treasure” (Los Angeles Times). Filled with kings and peasants, saints and ogres—as well as some quite extraordinary plants and animals—these two hundred tales bring to life Italy’s folklore, sometimes with earthy humor, sometimes with noble mystery, and sometimes with the playfulness of sheer nonsense. Selected and retold by one of the country’s greatest literary icons, “this collection stands with the finest folktale collections anywhere” (The New York Times Book Review). “For readers of any age . . . A masterwork.” —The Wall Street Journal “A magic book, and a classic to boot.” —Time
