There are two things which cannot be attacked in front: ignorance and narrow-mindedness. They can only be shaken by the simple development of the contrary qualities. They will not bear discussion.
From Lord Acton
Opinions alter, manners change, creeds rise and fall, but the moral laws are written on the table of eternity.
The man who prefers his country before any other duty shows the same spirit as the man who surrenders every right to the state. They both deny that right is superior to authority.
Be not content with the best book; seek sidelights from the others; have no favourites.
There is no error so monstrous that it fails to find defenders among the ablest men.
