Christopher Henry Dawson
“Democracy bases its appeal on the sacredness of the People – the consecration of Folk; socialism on the sacredness of Labor – the consecration of Work; and nationalism on the sacredness of the Fatherland – the consecration of Place. These concepts still arouse transcendent religious values or sanctions. It is religious emotion divorced from religious belief.”
Christopher Henry Dawson, Dynamics Of World History

Josemaría Escrivá
“Be firm! Be strong! Be a man! And then … be an angel!”
Josemaría Escrivá, The Way

Søren Kierkegaard
“Marry, and you will regret it; don’t marry, you will also regret it; marry or don’t marry, you will regret it either way. Laugh at the world’s foolishness, you will regret it; weep over it, you will regret that too; laugh at the world’s foolishness or weep over it, you will regret both. Believe a woman, you will regret it; believe her not, you will also regret it… Hang yourself, you will regret it; do not hang yourself, and you will regret that too; hang yourself or don’t hang yourself, you’ll regret it either way; whether you hang yourself or do not hang yourself, you will regret both. This, gentlemen, is the essence of all philosophy.”
Søren Kierkegaard

Josemaría Escrivá
“If you have so many defects, why are you surprised to find defects in others?”
Josemaría Escrivá

Thomas Aquinas
“Mercy without justice is the mother of dissolution; justice without mercy is cruelty.”
Thomas Aquinas
