Our Quotes From Famous People:

GETTING A SECONDHAND HEART
It is interesting to wonder just how barbaric abortion will appear to a future generation when they reflect that a people who could marvel at the opportunity to get a secondhand heart took the godlike ability to create a human being so cheaply.

IT IS HIM WE ARE EXTINGUISHING
We worship a God who had counted the hairs of each head, and cannot see a sparrow fall to the ground without distress.  If He so prizes all creation, are we, in our vainglory to take it upon outselves to decide when and in what circumstances a life - our own or another's - should be cut short?  We follow a Savior Who drew the sick and the infirm and the crazed to Him with His love.  Who told us that, insofar as we cared for them, we were caring for Him.  Can caring involve their extinction?  If so, then it is Him we are extinguishing.

WHATEVER WE DO TO THE UNBORN CHILD
 
Whatever we do to the unborn child, we do to Jesus Christ.
(Mother Teresa)
WHAT DO WE TEACH OUR CHILDREN IN SCHOOL?
 
"Each second we live is a new and unique moment of the universe, a moment that never was before and will never be again. And what do we teach our children in school? We teach them that two and two make four and that Paris is the capital of France. When will we also teach them what they are? We should say to them: Do you know what you are? You are a marvel. You are unique. In all the world there is no other child exactly like you. And look at your body, what a wonder it is! Your legs, your arms, your cunning fingers, the way they move! You may become a Shakespeare, a Michelangelo, a Beethoven. You have the capacity for anything. Yes, you are a marvel. And when you grow up, can you then harm another who is, like you, a marvel? You must work. . . we all must work. . . to make this world worthy of its children!"
(World-renowned cellist Pablo Casals)
WORKING TO CHANGE LAW
 
In 1857, it was not enough for people of good will to call slavery wrong; it was absolutely essential that they call the law wrong, and worked to change it."
(Cardinal Archbishop John J. O'Connor of New York)
A DEFINITION OF FRIENDSHIP
 
"Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person; having neither to weigh thoughts, nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are - chaff and grain together. Certain that a faithful hand will take and sift, keeping that which is worth keeping and then with a breath of kindness, blowing the chaff away."
(Anonymous)
HONOR
 
Honor is the quality of personal integrity. . .It is won slowly by a lifetime of small decisions where one puts the virtues of compassion and justice ahead of his own advancement.
(St. Augustine)
GEORGE WASHINGTON
 
Mighty leaders have not hesitated to bow down before God. It was reported that one could always tell which one in Congress was George Washington, because he always knelt in prayer.
(THE POWER OF PRAYER)
POLITICS IS DIRTY BUSINESS
 
Politics is dirty business today because "clean" people have abrogated their duty and allowed non-Christians to take over! The Constitution of the U. S. is considered by even the agnostic experts as being divinely inspired. We had the most perfect system of government ever soon on the earth, run by God-loving, God-fearing men. Our Republic ran so well that we were lulled into complacencyt, and we allowed liars, cheats, thieves, and devil worshippers to take over!
(From THE ANSWERING SERVICE, P. O. Box 30000, Phoenix, AZ 85010)
THE BIBLE - GOD'S BEST GIFT TO MAN
 
I believe the Bible is the best gift God has ever given to man. All the good from the Savior of the world is communicated through this Book. I have been driven many times to my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had nowhere else to go. I can see how it might be possible for a man to look down upon the earth and be an atheist, but I cannot conceive how he could look up into Heaven and say there is no God.
(Abraham Lincoln)
POVERTY OF THE SPIRIT
 
An excessive dedication to luxury and refinement is always an indication of the inner poverty of the spirit.
(Bishop Fulton J. Sheen)
THE SAME CHAUVINISM
 
How ironic! For years women have protested being viewed as objects, the property of a male, and thus disposable when inconvenient and unwanted. Now, when womanhood has finally achieved a voice, some are using it to demand, in the same chauvinism which they deplore, a legal right allowing them to dispose of others in the human family when those in their turn become inconvenient and unwanted."
(From Who Broke the Baby? by Jean Staker Garton)
