• El amor nos hace tender instintivamente la mano a Dios y a los demás. La lujuria, en cambio, es todo menos piadosa y celebra la autocomplacencia. El amor viene con las manos y el corazón abiertos; la lujuria viene sólo con el apetito abierto. Estas son sólo algunas de las razones por las que prostituir el verdadero significado del amor -ya sea con la imaginación o con otra persona- es tan destructivo. Destruye lo que es segundo después de nuestra fe en Dios, es decir, la fe en aquellos a quienes amamos. Sacude los pilares de la confianza sobre los que se construye el amor presente o futuro, y se tarda mucho tiempo en reconstruir esa confianza cuando se pierde.

• Por amor no entiendo indulgencia. No me refiero a sentimentalismo. Y en este caso, ni siquiera me refiero al romanticismo. Me refiero a la condición que permitió a los humanos soñar con Dios, la condición que permitió a los "tontos" escribir espirituales, canciones rusas y lilts irlandeses. Eso es el amor, y es mucho más grande que cualquier cosa que yo pueda concebir.

• Por lo tanto, debo remitirme a la historia en busca de una respuesta, en la que sería un pasaje infeliz, en verdad, el que mostrara por qué fatal indulgencia de opiniones y pasiones subordinadas, una contienda por un átomo había derrotado las perspectivas bien fundadas de dar libertad a la mitad del globo.

• We have been saying, Lucy, that 'tis the strangest thing in the world people should quarrel about religion, since we undoubtedly all mean the same thing; all good minds in every religion aim at pleasing the Supreme Being; the means we take differ according to where we are born, and the prejudices we imbibe from education; a consideration which ought to inspire us with kindness and indulgence to each other.

• Liberty without discipline cannot survive. Without order and authority in the spirit of man the free way of life leads through weakness, disorganization, self-indulgence, and moral indifference to the destruction of freedom itself. The tragic ordeal through which the Western world is passing was prepared in the long period of easy liberty during which men forgot the elementary truths of human existence. They forgot that their freedom was achieved by heroic sacrifice.

• From the   5th grade through the 4th year of college, our young people are being   indoctrinated with a Marxist philosophy and I am fearful of the harvest. The younger generation is further to the   left than most adults realize. The old concepts of our Founding Fathers are   scoffed and jeered at by young moderns whose goals appear to be the   destruction of integrity and virtue, and the glorification of pleasure,   thrills, and self-indulgence.

• Las atrocidades se muestran ahora en fragmentos de 30 segundos. El horror artístico duro es una expresión de odio al prójimo. La imaginación truculenta se alimenta de la vanidad, la lujuria, la autocomplacencia y la desesperación, en lugar de la esperanza del Espíritu Santo. El Cuerpo de Cristo necesita mirar y arrepentirse de nuestra propia caída.... Cualquier arena de la que se retiren los cristianos se va al infierno.
