| gptkbp:famousQuote |
“In a free society, some are guilty, but all are responsible.”
“Prayer is our humble answer to the inconceivable surprise of living.” “The opposite of good is not evil. It is indifference.” “We are not all we should be, but we are more than we were.” “To be is to be related.” “Faith is not a leap into the dark; it is a leap into the light.” “There is a time to speak and a time to be silent.” “The man who is not afraid of the future is a man who has no past.” “God is not a hypothesis derived from logical assumptions, but an immediate experience of the divine.” “Life is not a spectator sport.” |
