“As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master. This expresses my idea of democracy.”
Abraham Lincoln

“It is not for nothing that you are named Ransom,” said the Voice... The whole distinction between things accidental and things designed, like the distinction between fact and myth, was purely terrestrial. The pattern is so large that within the little frame of earthly experience there appear pieces of it between which we can see no connection, and other pieces between which we can. Hence we rightly, for our sue, distinguish the accidental from the essential. But step outside that frame and the distinction drops down into the void, fluttering useless wings. He had been forced out of the frame, caught up into the larger pattern… “My name also is Ransom,” said the Voice.”
C.S. Lewis

Mahatma Gandhi

Billy Graham

“If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.”

Leo Tolstoy
