WE ARE NOT PUT INTO THIS WORLD TO SIT STILL AND KNOW; WE ARE PUT INTO IT TO ACT.

There must be, not a balance of power, but a community of power; not organized rivalries, but an organized peace.

When you have read the Bible, you will know it is the word of God, because you will have found it the key to your own heart, your own happiness and your own duty.

I not only use all the brains I have but all that I can borrow.

Big business is not dangerous today because it is big, but because its bigness is an unwholesome inflation created by privileges and exemptions which it ought not to enjoy.

Every great man of business has got somewhere a touch of the idealist in him.

If a dog will not come to you after he has looked you in the face, you ought to go home and examine your conscience.

The nation's honor is dearer than the nation's comfort; yes, than the nation's life itself.

The history of liberty is the history of the limitation of governmental power, not the increase of it. When we resist . . . concentration of power we are resisting the powers of death, because concentration of power is what always precedes the destruction of human liberties.

THE SUM OF THE WHOLE MATTER IS THIS - OUR CIVILIZATION CANNOT SURVIVE MATERIALLY UNLESS IT BE REDEEMED SPIRITUALLY.
