Quotes

It is far better to render beings in your care competent than to protect them.

Jordan Peterson

Maya Angelou

Nothing is easier than to have good intentions but, without an understanding of how an economy works, good intentions can lead to counterproductive, or even disastrous, consequences for a whole nation.

Thomas Sowell

He who permits himself to tell a lie once, finds it much easier to do it a second and third time, till at length it becomes habitual; he tells lies without attending to it, and truths without the world’s believing him.

Thomas Jefferson

Why is it when we talk to God we’re said to be praying, but when God talks to us, we’re said to be schizophrenic?

Jane Wagner

It is a mistake to aim at an unattainable precision. It is better to be vaguely right than exactly wrong.

Carveth Read

Jordan Peterson

Talk does not cook rice.

Unknown

I take toleration to be a part of religion. I do not know which I would sacrifice; I would keep them both.

Edmund Burke

Now, if no other work were commanded but chastity alone, we would all have enough to do with this one; so perilous and raging a vice is unchastity.

Martin Luther

You cannot eliminate religion from the psyche of mankind. If you suppress it in one form, it merely re-emerges in another form.

Michael Crichton

If we did not have the freedom to say no to God, we could not truly love Him.

Scott Hahn

It is by no means a good thing to be the oldest person at the frat party. It is desperation, masquerading as cool rebelliousness. . . .

Jordan Peterson
