Quotes

There is always more goodness in the world than there appears to be, because goodness is of its very nature modest and retiring.

Evelyn Beatrice Hall

Instead of fostering assimilation and harmony, our schools are increasingly a source of the very fragmentation that they earlier did so much to prevent.

Milton Friedman

Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.

Edgar Allan Poe

While there’s life, there’s hope.

Terence

Work is sometimes its own reward. Mostly, however, it is the price we pay to get the things we want.

Milton Friedman

Pray, hope, and don’t worry. Worrying is pointless. God is merciful and he will hear your prayer.

Pio of Pietrelcina

Civilization is the process of setting man free from men.

Ayn Rand

Upon the whole, I came to the conclusion that the optimist thought everything good except the pessimist, and that the pessimist thought everything bad, except himself.

G.K. Chesterton

Political freedom, as the Western world has known it, is only a political reading of the Bible. Religion and freedom are indivisible.

Whittaker Chambers

Totalitarian regimes tend to emphasize state education, because they know that indoctrinating the children protects their positions of power.

Scott Bradford

The preservation of the sacred fire of liberty, and the destiny of the republican model of government, are justly considered as deeply, perhaps as finally staked, on the experiment entrusted to the hands of the American people.

George Washington

Union bosses talked about securing the ‘right to strike,’ but they didn’t mean the right to quit, which everybody already had. In practice, the ‘right to strike’ meant the right to forcibly prevent others from filling jobs that strikers had left.

Jim Powell

Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.

John F. Kennedy

In the present age men are not very ready to die in defense of their opinions, but they are rarely inclined to change them; and there are fewer martyrs as well as fewer apostates.

Alexis de Tocqueville

A business which can bring itself to the point where it attracts the attention of money should be able to continue on its own feet without being financed.

Henry Ford

Every culture agrees, in general terms, that good is to be done and evil avoided.

Scott Hahn

It matters, it always matters, to name rubbish as rubbish . . . to do otherwise is to legitimize it.

Salman Rushdie

Who are to be the electors of the federal representatives? Not the rich, more than the poor; not the learned, more than the ignorant; not the haughty heirs of distinguished names, more than the humble sons of obscurity and unpropitious fortune.

James Madison

The rules don’t change based on who’s breaking them.

Scott Bradford

I don’t think goodness is something that you learn. If you’re left adrift in the world to learn goodness from it, you would be in trouble.

Cormac McCarthy
