Quotes

If the rights of the meek are to be preserved and the peace is to be enforced, the meek must stay strong. There is a critical moral difference between the peacemakers and the pacifists.

Paul Skousen

Knowledge can last, principles can last, habits can last; but feelings come and go.

C.S. Lewis

When a man yields in matters of ideals, of honor, or of faith, that man is without ideals, without honor, and without faith.

Josemaría Escrivá

Laurence J. Peter

All economic transactions involve mutual accommodation and each transactor has to make the deal a net benefit to the other transactor, in order to have a deal at all.

Salman Rushdie

If you’re not catching flak, you’re not over the target.

Tertullian

Let us therefore continue united in the cause of rational liberty. Let unity and liberty be our mark as well as our motto. For only such an union can secure our freedom; and division will inevitably destroy it.

Anonymous

The foundation upon which all our knowledge and learning rests is the inexplicable.

Arthur Schopenhauer

The similarities of the economics of the New Deal to the economics of Mussolini’s corporative state or Hitler’s totalitarian state are both close and obvious.

Norman Thomas

It is a fact . . . that the sale of small arms to gun enthusiasts or sportsmen produces a greater sense of moral outrage in western society than is produced by the sale to psychotic despots of weaponry capable of killing thousands.

Margaret Thatcher

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

René Descartes

Every natural fact is a symbol of some spiritual fact.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

It is not possible to run a course aright when the goal itself has not been rightly placed.
