Education is the transmission of civilization.

Most of us spend too much time on the last twenty-four hours and too little on the last six thousand years.

The soul of a civilization is its religion, and it dies with its faith.

Can a civilization hold together if man abandons his faith in God?

As knowledge grew, fear decreased; men thought less of worshiping the unknown, and more of overcoming it.

The fear of capitalism has compelled socialism to widen freedom, and the fear of socialism has compelled capitalism to increase equality. East is West and West is East, and soon the twain will meet.

Civilizations come and go; they conquer the earth and crumble into dust; but faith survives every desolation.
