| gptkbp:famousQuote |
"The truth is not always popular, but it is always right."
"Human dignity is not a gift from the state; it is a gift from God." "The moral law is not a mere human invention; it is a reflection of the nature of the universe." "The law is not a mere command of the sovereign; it is a reflection of the moral order." "We must not confuse the fact that we can do something with the question of whether we should do it." |
