People pay for what they do and more for what they are and they pay simply by the lives they lead. ~James Baldwin
A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic - on the level with a man who says he is a poached egg - or he would be the devil of hell. You must take your choice. Either this was, and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse. You can shut Him up for a fool or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come with any patronising nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.
~C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
"Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Hate destroys a man's sense of values and his objectivity. It causes him to describe the beautiful as ugly and the ugly as beautiful, and to confuse the true with the false and the false with the true."
~ Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr
"I got thinkinâ how we was holy when we was one thing, anâ mankinâ was holy when it was one thing. Anâ it onây got unholy when one misâable little fella got the bit in his teeth anâ run off his own way, kickinâ anâ dragginâ anâ fightinâ. Fella like that bust the holi-ness. But when theyâre all workinâ together, not one fella for another fella, but one fella kind of harnessed to the whole shebangâthatâs right, thatâs holy."
~Jim Casey [Steinbeck]

here is no ground for believing life has any purpose, meaning, or value - only the happenstance from which it arises and the way in which it happens to be. Without divine revelation, there is no âoughtâ or standard to tell us how we should live our lives or conduct civil policy - nothing absolute that really exists and embodies the perfect ideal.
~ Einstein
