Quote

Piety requires us to honor truth above our friends.

Honor lies in honest toil.

Oaths are the fossils of piety.

I didn't study theology out of piety. I studied it because I wanted to know.

Truth is meant to save you first, and the comfort comes afterward.

Piety is the most solid goodness, and the vilest of what is evil is vice.

The greatest friend of truth is Time, her greatest enemy is Prejudice, and her constant companion is Humility.

In a society which is structured the wrong way, piety has no effect.
