“en nuestra época el mal no se contiene con la sola represion; es necesario ahogarle con la abundancia del bien.”
Jaime Balmes y Urpià, Filosofía Fundamental, Tomo I

“En el gobierno de las naciones, la política pequeña es la política de los intereses bastardos, de las intrigas, de la corrupcion; la política grande es la política de la conveniencia pública, de la razon, del derecho. En la vida privada, la conducta pequeña es la de los manejos ignobles, de las miras mezquinas, del vicio; la conducta grande es la que inspira la generosidad y la virtud.”
Jaime Balmes y Urpià, El arte de pensar bien: El Criterio

“La Intuición: tener a la vista el objeto inundado de luz, cuando los demás están en tinieblas.”
Jaime Balmes, El Criterio
