C.S. Lewis

“There probably isn’t any undertaking on earth short of assuring the national security that can’t be handled more efficiently by the forces of private enterprise than by the federal government.”
Ronald Reagan

“No hay caminos para la paz; la paz es el camino.”

“Looking back at the recent history of the world, I find it amazing how far civilization has retrogressed so quickly. As recently as World War I—granted the rules were violated at times—we had a set of rules of warfare in which armies didn’t make war against civilians: Soldiers fought soldiers. Then came World War II and Hitler’s philosophy of total war, which meant the bombing not only of soldiers but of factories that produced their rifles, and, if surrounding communities were also hit, that was to be accepted; then, as the war progressed, it became common for the combatants simply to attack civilians as part of military strategy. By the time the 1980s rolled around, we were placing our entire faith in a weapon whose fundamental target was the civilian population.”
Ronald Reagan

Martin Luther King Jr

“I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past.”
Thomas Jefferson

“It is not beauty that endears, it's love that makes us see beauty.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Like a tourist, I watched the range of human possibility on display, trying to trace out my future in the lives of the people I saw, looking for some opening through which I could reenter.”
Barack Obama

“A nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people. ”
