"No society can survive the socialist fallacy that there is an absolutely unlimited number of inspired officials and an absolutely unlimited amount of money to pay them." G.K. CHESTERTON

"Without education, we are in a horrible and deadly danger of taking educated people seriously." G.K. CHESTERTON

"There are two ways to get enough. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less." G.K. CHESTERTON

"We fear men so much, because we fear God so little. One fear cures another. When man's terror scares you, turn your thoughts to the wrath of God." G.K. CHESTERTON

"Reason is itself a matter of faith. It is an act of faith to assert that our thoughts have any relation to reality at all." G.K. CHESTERTON

"For children are innocent and love justice, while most of us are wicked and naturally prefer mercy." G.K. CHESTERTON
