"The Catholic Church is an institution I am bound to hold divine – but for unbelievers a proof of its divinity might be found in the fact that no merely human institution conducted with such knavish imbecility would have lasted a fortnight." – Hilaire Belloc

About me
[edit ]Username
[edit ]My username is from the Old English poem "Deor". The poem is about perseverance in the face of adversity and each stanza is separated by the refrain: "Þæs ofereode, þisses sƿa mæg", literally 'That passed over, so may this' but often translated wholly as 'This too shall pass'. In Old English, my username was probably pronounced something like [θæsˈo.verˌe͜oː.de] , but I usually pronounce it like /θæsˌoʊvəreɪˈjoʊdə/ (thass OH-vər-ay-YOH-də).
