I have alternately been called an Aristocrat and a Democrat. I am neither. I am a Christocrat.

I have always considered Christianity as the strong ground of republicanism.

The Bible contains more knowledge necessary to man in his present state than any other book in the world.

A simple democracy is the devil's own government.

Without religion, I believe that learning does real mischief to the morals and principles of mankind.

Christianity is the only true and perfect religion; and... in proportion as mankind adopt its principles and obey its precepts, they will be wise and happy.

By withholding the knowledge of [the Scriptures] from children, we deprive ourselves of the best means of awakening moral sensibility in their minds.
