Speak the truth and let the profit go;
For those who seek to please, reap as they sow.
A SAMPLING FROM
The Musings of a Meandering Stream
To admit error openly and without hesitation brings an authenticity that being correct can never provide.
Resentment of authority is the inevitable response to a world where the unfit with rare exceptions rise to power.
Nature and nurture contrive to make us one of a kind, and yet we strive to be one of the many.
Creativity seldom survives the standardized tests of life.
Whom do we believe? Censure's sincerity may be suspect, but flattery rarely escapes its desire to please.
Culture writes its indelible message on our tabula rasa, capturing us for life.
Time shapes recollections to serve our needs.
Virtue becomes vice when it is merely adopted as effective strategy.
Those who go the wrong way down the one-way streets of life are far less dangerous than the thoughtless majority, whose mindless adherence to prevalent views of the moment is uncorrupted by evidence to the contrary.
The tender touch of a hand can express the most profound feelings of love and longing.
What is hell but immortality without love.
Memory evokes a creative portrait of the past.
Neutrality in the face of evil is no virtue.
For those who seek to please, reap as they sow.

Autoren-Porträt von Donald Redheffer
Donald Redheffer is a retired teacher of mathematics whose interests go far beyond that subject. As a youth he excelled in athletics, possessing great strength, speed, and coordination. However, by his teen years he discarded sports for philosophy and poetry, having developed an extraordinary intellectual curiosity and verbal fluency.At that time he also exhibited a strong tendency to challenge authority, including that of his teachers. An indifferent student yet widely knowledgeable, he says that he never let school interfere with his education.
His challenging of authority also included all popular beliefs, including religion. His very different perspective on matters, coupled with an exceptional ability to articulate his views, have amazed and amused people over the years.
Mr. Redheffer is also an accomplished nature photographer and has traveled to Africa, the South Pacific, and the Americas to pursue this hobby.
He is a graduate of DePaul University.
Mr. Redheffer is a native of Chicago, where he now resides.
