Christian Thinkers.
"Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?"-Abraham Lincoln
"Character is doing the right thing when nobody's looking. There are too many people who think that the only thing that's right is to get by, and the only thing that's wrong is to get caught."-J. C. Watts
"The right to do something does not mean that doing it is right."-William Safire
"Be not angry that you cannot make others as you wish them to be, since you cannot make yourself as you wish to be."-Thomas a Kempis
"God, give us grace to accept with serenity the things that cannot be changed, courage to change the things which should be changed, and the wisdom to distinguish the one from the other."-Reinhold Niebuhr
"When the passions become masters, they are vices."-Blaise Pascal
"Two men please God--who serves Him with all his heart because he knows Him; who seeks Him with all his heart because he knows Him not."-Nikita Ivanovich Panin
"My captor walked up to me and with his sandal drew a cross in the dirt. Both prisoner and guard stood wordlessly there for a minute or two, venerating the cross, until the guard rubbed it out and walked away. This is my faith. The faith that unites and never divides, the faith that bridges unbridgeable gaps in humanity. That is my religious faith, and it is the faith I want my party to serve and the faith I hold in my country."-Senator John McCain
"Never let your head hang down. Never give up and sit down and grieve. Find another way. And don't pray when it rains if you don't pray when the sun shines."-Satchel Paige
"In the struggle against evil, there is no shame in defeat -- only in not fighting."-Steven Hart
"Anything that is given can be at once taken away. We have to learn never to expect anything, and when it comes it's no more than a gift on loan."-John McGahern
