If your intuition is telling you not to do something, then don't. Your intuition is not stupid.

For it is, and must remain, the case that we must obey God rather than man.

Ask the first man you meet what he means by defending freedom, and he'll tell you privately he means defending the standard of living.

Don't let your life wait for other people.

First they came for the Jews, but I did nothing because I'm not a Jew. Then they came for the socialists, but I did nothing because I'm not a socialist. Then they came for the Catholics, but I did nothing because I'm not a Catholic. Finally, they came for me, but by then there was no one left to help me.

It took me a long time to understand that God is not the enemy of my enemies. God is not even the enemy of God's enemies.

Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out - because I was not a socialist.
