The Chesterteens: A few quotes
http://chesterteens.blogspot.com/2009/11/few-quotes.html
Friday, November 20, 2009. I've been rereading parts of. The Wisdom and Innocence. For a college admission essay I'm working on, and came across several absolutely lovely quotes:. I am overwhelmed with an enormous sense of my own worthlessness- which is very nice and makes me dance and sing.". The principle objection to an argument is that it interrupts a quarrel.". I wonder whether you mean this? Perhaps the principal objection to a quarrel is that it interrupts an argument. The first one.so true! He ha...

The Chesterteens: Who prayed for Chesterton?
http://chesterteens.blogspot.com/2009/06/who-prayed-for-chesterton.html
Monday, June 29, 2009. Who prayed for Chesterton? On Chesterton's conversion to the Catholic Faith:. Posted by Lauren (RoseinFaith). This is why we Chestertonians must always remember to pray for conversions and for converts. One of those I would like to recommend for our prayers is Martin Gardiner, a famous writer on science and mathematics - he annotated Alice In Wonderland. And he admires GKC, but has not yet followed GKC to the Everlasting Man. May God grant him wisdom! The American Chesterton Society.

The Chesterteens: CHESTERTON SQUARE!
http://chesterteens.blogspot.com/2009/07/chesterton-square.html
Sunday, July 05, 2009. My family and I recently had the privilege of visiting Chesterton Square in Ponchatoula, Louisiana, the home of the only. Life-size statue of G.K. Chesterton in America! Here are some photos of our visit- view and be jealous, my fellow Chestertonians! Around each side of the statue are four different plaques:. My brother and I were thoroughly enjoying ourselves, standing next to GKC! A few more pics of GK and his square:. The old train engine! The square from different angles.

The Chesterteens: December 2009
http://chesterteens.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 24, 2009. The Shop of Ghosts. That is why, as in "The Shop of Ghosts," Christmas is dying, yet cannot die. It's source is eternal, it's traditions temporal- meaning those external traditions, such as Christmas trees and carols and family gatherings. The temporal outward signs are always dying, like a tree dying in winter; yet because the roots are eternal, it is always living again. How can one be too good, or too jolly? Merry Christmas to all!

The Chesterteens: Chestertonian Moment (It's a true story!)
http://chesterteens.blogspot.com/2010/03/chestertonian-moment-its-true-story.html
Tuesday, March 02, 2010. Chestertonian Moment (It's a true story! Step falls on step, just like the day before. Falls flat on floor (it's on Nebraska ground),. Eyes view white walls, and closed and opened doors. No laughter gleams, and no scared heartes pound. The statue stands as he has always stood. Upon his pedestal of cubic wood. The carpet's clean, just as it ought to be. So free of clutter that it looks empty. It grabs my head and whips it straight around. I cry: "I say! Where did all of it go?

The Chesterteens: March 2010
http://chesterteens.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 16, 2010. Constable Keep, a Chestertonian Short Story. Note well: This is not the whole story. Hopefully, there is more to come. So, if some of the conversation in the middle scene seems a bit…incongruous…well, it’s supposed to be. The perpetual English rain may have been plopping in the puddles as Constable Keep twirled his bobby-stick, but its frenetic pace and the rushing of the hansom-cabs did not stop the Constable from sniffing a deep sniff and grunting a small grunt. 8220;You see,&#...
