Greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. — 1 John 4:4

"A communist is someone who reads Marx. An anti-communist is someone who understands Marx." —Ronald Reagan
"If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a small chance of survival. There may even be a worse case: you may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." —Winston Churchill
"You know why there's a Second Amendment? In case the government fails to follow the first one." —Rush Limbaugh
"Democracy depends upon service voluntarily rendered, money voluntarily contributed." —Ronald Reagan
"There will never be a shortage of ignorant audacity." —Thomas Sowell
"My fellow columnist M. Stanton Evans is responsible for the brilliant perception that the Republicans ... are 'the stupid party' and the Democrats are 'the evil party.' Every once in a while they get together and hatch some policy that is both stupid and evil. This is called 'bipartisanship,' and the immigration reform bill was a spectacular example of it." —William Rusher
"My point is not that liberals swear publicly more often than conservatives.... It is that the netroots often argue from anger rather than reason, and too often, their object is personal release, not political persuasion." —Karl Rove
"A peace laureate acting as an advocate for war might seem odd. Odd, unless you understand that war is not the worst evil known to mankind. And odd, unless you understand that the absence of war is far from being the same thing as peace." —Jose Ramos-Horta
"Individuals who are family-reliant and God-reliant are rarely government-reliant. Christianity emphasizes both individuality and community. Balancing the two has been a genius of America as well. F. Scott Fitzgerald in the The Great Gatsby almost a century ago nailed selfish folks who ignore the need for balance. He wrote about careless rich people who make messes and leave the cleanup to their servants. Today, rich and especially poor often leave the cleanup to government officials. If we want fewer officials, we need to reduce the number of messes. Social conservatism makes possible fiscal conservatism. " —Marvin Olasky
"If you have government health care, you not only annex a huge chunk of the economy, you also destroy a huge chunk of individual liberty. You fundamentally change the relationship between the citizen and the state into something closer to that of junkie and pusher, and you make it very difficult ever to change back." —Mark Steyn
"These simpletons seem to spend half their lives on their knees praying and the other half up in arms, looking to kill somebody for some utterly stupid reason. They are a blot on humanity, and humanity, I think we’d all agree, isn’t that great to begin with." —Burt Prelutsky
"He who promotes single parenthood is indifferent to the fate of children." —Theodore Dalrymple
"No nation ever taxed itself into prosperity." —Rush Limbaugh
"We should have learned the timeless truth that weakness is provocative." —Donald Rumsfeld
"If the current pace continues, the Iraq death toll will top Vietnam's in just 73 years." —James Taranto
"During a war, patriotic Americans don't blame the deaths on our government. We blame them on the enemy that persists in trying to kill our soldiers." —Orson Scott Card
"'The meaning of peace is the absence of opposition to socialism." —Karl Marx
The American Civil War was not about conditions in Andersonville prison and the war in Iraq is not about conditions in Abu Ghraib prison. —Thomas Sowell
"Socialism is the philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy." —Winston Churchill, 1948
A prolonged peace favors the predominance of a mere commercial spirit, and with it a debasing self-interest, cowardice, and effeminacy that tends to degrade the character of the nation. –Immanuel Kant
"Being a lover of freedom, when the [Nazi] revolution came, I looked to the universities to defend it, knowing that they had always boasted of their devotion to the cause of truth; but no, the universities were immediately silenced. Then I looked to the great editors of the newspapers, whose flaming editorials...had proclaimed their love of freedom; but they, like the universities, were silenced in a few short weeks.... Only the Church stood squarely across the path of Hitler's campaign for suppressing the truth.... the Church alone has had the courage and persistence to stand for intellectual and moral freedom. I am forced to confess that what I once despised I now praise unreservedly. —Albert Einstein
"Pacifists are among the most immoral of men. They make no distinction between aggression and defense. Therefore, pacifism is one of the greatest allies an aggressor can have!" —Patrick Henry
“In dictatorships you need courage to fight evil; in the free world you need courage to see evil.” —Natan Sharansky
The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left. Ecclesiastes 10:2
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 2 Corinthians 3:17
Do not trust U.S. foreign policy to cry-babies with candles. —Albion Wilde
