It is alleged by men of loose principles, or defective views of the subject, that religion and morality are not necessary or important qualifications for political station.

He sacrifices not only his own interest but that of his neighbor, and he betrays the interest of his country Picture Quote #1

That must stop if we’re going to be able to develop a climate for peace Picture Quote #1

Obscenity is a moral concept in the verbal arsenal of the establishment, which abuses the term by applying it, not to expressions of its own morality but to those of another Picture Quote #1
