Book cover for God Is the Gospel: Meditations on God's Love as the Gift of Himself
If the enjoyment of God himself is not the final and best gift of love, then God is not the greatest treasure,

Theodore Roosevelt
“Our aim is not to do away with corporations; on the contrary, these big aggregations are an inevitable development of modern industrialism, and the effort to destroy them would be futile unless accomplished in ways that would work the utmost mischief to the entire body politic. We can do nothing of good in the way of regulating and supervising these corporations until we fix clearly in our minds that we are not attacking the corporations, but endeavoring to do away with any evil in them. We are not hostile to them; we are merely determined that they shall be so handled as to subserve the public good. We draw the line against misconduct, not against wealth.”
Theodore Roosevelt

F.W. Boreham
“The honour of a nation can never rise above the standard of the integrity of its judges. The corruption of a people is quickly reflected in the degradation of its Courts; the good sense and moral soundness of a people are indicated by the unbending probity of its judicial administrators.”
F. W. Boreham

François Mauriac
“If you would tell me the heart of a man, tell me not what he reads, but what he rereads.”
Francois Mauriac

N.T. Wright
“Jesus's resurrection is the beginning of God's new project not to snatch people away from earth to heaven but to colonize earth with the life of heaven. That, after all, is what the Lord's Prayer is about.”
N.T. Wright, Surprised by Hope: Rethinking Heaven, the Resurrection, and the Mission of the Church

G.K. Chesterton
“Nobody can imagine how nothing could turn into something. Nobody can get an inch nearer to it by explaining how something could turn into something else. It is really far more logical to start by saying ‘In the beginning God created heaven and earth’ even if
you only mean ‘In the beginning some unthinkable power began some unthinkable process.’ For God is by its nature a
name of mystery, and nobody ever supposed that man could imagine how a world was created any more than he could
create one. But evolution really is mistaken for explanation. It has the fatal quality of leaving on many minds the impression that they do understand it and everything else”
G.K. Chesterton, The Everlasting Man
