Enoch Powell
“Have you ever wondered, perhaps, why opinions which the majority of people quite naturally hold are, if anyone dares express them publicly, denounced as 'controversial, 'extremist', 'explosive', 'disgraceful', and overwhelmed with a violence and venom quite unknown to debate on mere political issues? It is because the whole power of the aggressor depends upon preventing people from seeing what is happening and from saying what they see.”
Enoch Powell

“Hebrews 10:35 says, So don’t throw away that courage of yours, which carries with it such a great reward.”
Rabbi Greg Hershberg, A Life for God: A Rabbi’s Analysis of Life, the Cross, and Eternity

Efraim Karsh
“On 20 March 1982, on the occasion of the Iranian new year, Khomeini announced that ‘as a special favour’ schoolboys between the ages of 12 and 18 years would be allowed to join the Basij and to fight for their country. Consequently scores of youths volunteered for action and were hastily recruited and provided with ‘Passports to Paradise’, as the admission forms were called. They were then given rudimentary military training, of a week or so, by the Pasdaran, and sent to the front where many of them ‘martyred’ themselves.”
Efraim Karsh, The Iran–Iraq War 1980–1988

Peter Schäfer
“Its main thesis is that not only the emerging Christianity drew on contemporary Judaism but that rabbinic Judaism, too, tapped into ideas and concepts of Christianity to shape its own identity; that, far from being forever frozen in ingrained hostility, the two sister religions engaged in a profound interaction during late antiquity.”
Peter Schäfer, The Jewish Jesus: How Judaism and Christianity Shaped Each Other

“The second greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he is the good guy”—Ken Ammi”
