Evil is not to be traced back to the individual but to the collective behavior of humanity.
From Reinhold Niebuhr
The mastery of nature is vainly believed to be an adequate substitute for self mastery.
The sad duty of politics is to establish justice in a sinful world.
If we survive danger it steels our courage more than anything else.
There is no cure for the pride of a virtuous nation but pure religion.
