"Moral issues are always terribly complex for someone without principles."
 G.K. Chesterton 
"I have always had an instinct against all the forms of science or morality which professed to be particularly prescient and provisional. Some beautiful idealists are eager to kill babies if they think they will grow up bad. But I say to them: No, beautiful idealists; let us wait until the babies grow up badand then (if we have luck) perhaps they may kill you."
 G.K. Chesterton 
"The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult; and left untried."
 G.K. Chesterton 
"A little philosophy inclineth man's mind to atheism, but depth in philosophy bringeth men's minds about to religion."
 Francis Bacon 
In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
 George Orwell 
"Let nothing disturb you,
Let nothing frighten you,
All things are passing away:
God never changes.
Patience obtains all things
Whoever has God lacks nothing;
God alone suffices."
 St. Teresa of Ávila 
"Everything I have said and done in these last years is relativism, by intuition. From the fact that all ideologies are of equal value, that all ideologies are mere fictions, the modern relativist infers that everybody has the right to create for himself his own ideology, and to attempt to enforce it with all the energy of which he is capable. If relativism signifies contempt for fixed categories, and men who claim to be the bearers of an objective immortal truth, then there is nothing more relativistic than fascism."
 Benito Mussolini 
"Those who hate religion are seeking religion; those who wrongly condemn are still seeking justice; those who overthrow order are seeking a new order; even those who blaspheme are adoring their own gods  but still adoring." 
 Archbishop Fulton Sheen 
The very fact that the world is a thousand times more scandalized at a bad Catholic in public life than a bad anything else, is only a proof that the world expected much more of him.
 Archbishop Fulton Sheen 
"As the family goes, so goes the nation, and so goes the whole world in which we live." 
 St. John Paul II 
"To say a child is unwanted says nothing about the child, but it says much about the person who does not want his or her child."
