Pope Benedict XVI
“A tolerance that no longer distinguishes between good and evil would become chaotic and self-destructive, just as a freedom that did not respect the freedom of others or find the common measure of our respective liberties would become anarchy and destroy authority.”
Benedict XVI Pope

Alison Croggon
“There is a great force in renunciation of power that those who are blinded by the lust for domination cannot understand because those who truly love do not desire power.”
Alison Croggon, The Riddle
tags: love, power

Augustine of Hippo
“Our city must remember that in the ranks of its enemies, lie hid fellow citizens to be, and that it is well to bear with them until we can reach them in their profession of faith.”
Saint Augustine of Hippo

Dean Koontz
“The line between moral behavior and narcissistic self-righteousness is thin and difficult to discern. The man who stands before a crowd and proclaims his intention to save the seas is convinced that he is superior to a man who merely picks up his own and other people’s litter on the beach, when in fact the latter is in some small way sure to make the world a better place, while the former is likely to be a monster of vanity whose crusade will lead to unintended destruction.”
Dean Koontz, Deeply Odd

G.K. Chesterton
“Killed a policeman? How Vegetarian! Well, I suppose it was, so long as they didn't eat him.”
G. K. Chesterton
