“As if everyone did not know that while saints can afford to be dirty, seducers have to be clean.”
― G.K. Chesterton, What's Wrong with the World

“Once men sang together round a table in chorus; now one man sings alone, for the absurd reason that he can sing better. If our civilization goes on like this, only one man will laugh, because he can laugh better than the rest.”
― G.K. Chesterton

“Do you realize that it is only in the gospel of Jesus Christ that you get the verdict before the performance? The atheist might say that they get their self-image from being a good person. They are a good person and they hope that eventually they will get a verdict that confirms that they are a good person. Performance leads to the verdict. For the Buddhist too, performance leads to the verdict. If you are a Muslim, performance leads to the verdict. All this means that every day, you are in the courtroom, every day you are on trial. That is the problem. But Paul is saying that in Christianity, the verdict leads to performance.”
― Timothy Keller, The Freedom of Self Forgetfulness

“The lost causes are exactly those which might have saved the world.”
