You see, there are some people that one loves, and others that perhaps one would rather be with.

Your home is regarded as a model home, your life as a model life. But all this splendor, and you along with it... it's just as though it were built upon a shifting quagmire. A moment may come, a word can be spoken, and both you and all this splendor will collapse.

Was the majority right when they stood by while Jesus was crucified? Was the majority right when they refused to believe that the earth moved around the sun and let Galileo be driven to his knees like a dog? It takes fifty years for the majority to be right. The majority is never right until it does right.

The devil is compromise.

It’s a release to know that in spite of everything a premeditated act of courage is still possible.

This is life! It can harden and it can exalt!

Bigger things than the State will fall, all religion will fall.
