  Naomi and Ruth
Naomi’s return to her own land would, of course, according to the law of God, secure her provision; but in the constant rebellion and disobedience of the people, it was precarious and uncertain — she might not even be recognised by her countrymen, so long a time had elapsed since she had left Ephratah.
Naomi, who had, in all probability, passed the intervening days in thought and prayer, determined on seeking the rest and prosperity of her devoted daughter, according to the dictates of the law.
She who had been to Naomi better than seven sons (in the Hebrew the number is unlimited) would not fail to rear up her child in such virtue and holiness as would make his name indeed precious in Israel, and a blessing to his grandmother.

 In a Blog's Stead - February 2004
Long adduces Socrates as the originator, and Plato, Aristotle, and the Stoics as early developers, of the eudaimonist tradition; he also notes that eudaimonist views on the content of justice are quite foreign to the theories of justice inherent in individualist anarchism.
Long defines a “final arbiter” as “an agency that refuses to submit its use of force to external adjudication,” and which thus “is by definition lawless...” In effect, this means that anarchism equates legal finality with coercive monopoly.
I’ve long maintained (see here and here) that bourgeois and bohemian values are complementary rather than conflicting, and that any adequate ethical or political philosophy must give each its proper due, rather than enshrining one to the detriment of the other.

Naomi turned her eyes from him to Long Oliver, who leant against the staircase wall with his arms crossed and a veiled amusement in his face.
Naomi had plucked three fowls and trussed them, and wrapping each in a white napkin, had packed them in her basket with a dozen and a half of eggs, a few pats of butter, and a nosegay or two of garden-flowers--Sweet Williams, marigolds, and heart's-ease: for it was market-day at Tregarrick.
Naomi set her basket down on his work-table, and drew her breath back between her teeth--which is the Cornish mode of saying "Yes." "I want you to make me a couple of skivers," she said.
