Quotes

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

State power is no more to be used so as to handicap religions than it is to favor them.

Hugo Black

The most completely wasted of all days is that in which we have not laughed.

Nicolas Chamfort

It is at least as certain that God . . . exists as any demonstration in geometry can be.

René Descartes

If science is to progress and to benefit the human race, it must return to the protective mantle that Christian thought provided it when it was born.

Stacy Trasancos

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom . . . [then] crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

Samuel Adams

The common good, therefore, is the end of civil government, and common consent, the foundation on which it is established.

Anonymous

People crushed by law, have no hopes but from power. If laws are their enemies, they will be enemies to laws; and those who have much to hope and nothing to lose, will always be dangerous.

Edmund Burke

You make a thing voluntary and then half the people do not do it. That is not what you willed, but your will has made it possible.

C.S. Lewis

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

Robert Schuller

If men were angels, no government would be necessary.

James Madison

The people made the Constitution, and the people can unmake it. It is the creature of their own will, and lives only by their will.

John Marshall

It is the idea that rejecting God . . . will somehow lead to freedom, to complete human fulfillment. As a result [he] is replaced by fleeting human idols which offer the intoxication of a flash of freedom, but in the end bring new forms of slavery and death.

Rino Fisichella

Let not many of you become teachers, my brethren, for you know that we who teach shall be judged with greater strictness.

James the Just

For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Paul the Apostle

Faith is not the childish belief in magic. That is ignorance or even willful blindness. It is instead the realization that the tragic irrationalities of life must be counterbalanced by an equally irrational commitment to the essential goodness of Being.

Jordan Peterson

Human freedom is more than a capacity to choose between this and that. It is the God-given power to become who he created us to be and so to share eternal union with him.

U.S. Conf. of Catholic Bishops

The science of religion is one science within philosophy; indeed it is the final one.

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

When men are uniform in their opinions, it affords evidence that they are sincere. When they are shifting, it gives reason to believe, they do not change from conviction.
