Quote: Quakers were "very boisterous when they started out... Then somebody got embarrassed & they entered a period known as Quietism. They would have long silent periods during their meetings. Basically the thing Andrew & I are most scared of during an episode of TBTL is even a moment of silence!"

Mourning doves like our green roof in Center City Philly. Pertinent symbols of peace, here at our Quaker building. #birds#Quakers

A group of about 18 mourning doves are scattered on a roof that has plants on it. A low riser defines the edge of the roof. In the background is a multistory building with light facade and uniform rows of windows. It is part of the former Hahnemann Hospital building complex.

Or you could, you know, support the Quaker media that Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Facebook, etc., are training their bots on. Real Quaker writing by real Quakers who write."—our senior editor, Martin Kelly, on the rise of AI.
