None Before
"It is necessary that that which hath a beginning must have some cause, some author that gave it a beginning, but God never had a beginning; there was none before him, and therefore none that gave him his being. He thanks no one for his being; doth not, nor ever did depend upon any for it, but receives his being from himself, and depends alone on himself. Neither doth he thank anyone for anything he enjoys: his power, his wisdom, his excellency, his glory, his honor, and authority are his own, and received from none other."
- Jonathan Edwards, Works 10, 419.

Mr. Memorization
-noun. the act of committing to memory.
Me: Will I not lose my mind?
Mr. Memorization: Is learning my only end?
Me: What is your other end?
Mr. Memorization: By me the wax of truth languidly drips into the heart.
