Good quotes

"We are the successors of the martyrs and tremble not before the successors of Julian the Apostate. We are the sons of the crusaders and we shall never yield to the sons of Voltaire."
–Comte de Montalembert

A great plague will befall mankind. No where in the world will there be order. Satan will rule the highest places determining the way of things. He will succeed in seducing the spirits of the great scientists who invent arms, with which it will be possible to destroy a large part of humanity in a few minutes. Satan will have his power. The powerful who command the people will incite them to produce enormous quantities of arms. God will punish man more thoroughly than with the Flood. There will come the times of all times, and the end of all ends. The great and powerful will perish together with the small and weak. Even for the Church, it will be the time of its greatest trial. Cardinals will oppose cardinals. Bishops will oppose bishops. Satan will walk among them. And in Rome, there will be changes. The Church will be darkened and the world will be shaking with terror. One great war will erupt in the second half of the twentieth century. Fire and smoke will fall from the sky. The waters of the oceans will change into steam, and the steam will rise and overflow everything. The waters of the ocean will become mist. Millions and millions of people will die from hour to hour. Whoever remains alive will envy the dead. Everywhere one turns his glance there is going to be anguish and misery, ruins in every country. The time draws nearer. The abyss widens without hope. The good to perish with the bad. The great with the small. The princes of the Church with the faithful. The rulers with their people. There will be death everywhere because of the errors committed by non-believers and crazy followers of Satan which will then, and only then, take control over the world. At the last, those who survive, will at every chance, newly proclaim God and His glory, and will serve Him as when the world was not so perverted.

Mother Angelica, speaking to a priest on her program, said:
As for the Secret [the Third Secret of Fatima], well I happen to be one of those individuals who thinks we didn't get the whole thing. I told you! I mean, you have the right to your own opinion, don't you, Father? There, you know, that's my opinion. Because I think its scary.

-- St. Augustine"If you believe what you like in the gospels, and reject what you don't like, it is not the gospel you believe, but yourself."-- St. Augustine

George Orwell

If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.
Preface to Animal Farm (1946)

The atom bombs are piling up in the factories, the police are prowling through the cities, the lies are streaming from the loudspeakers, but earth is still going round the sun, and neither the dictators nor the bureaucrats, deeply as they disapprove of the process, are able to prevent it.
Some Thoughts on the Common Toad

By preaching the doctrine that nothing is to be admired except steel and concrete, one merely makes it a little surer that human beings will have no outlet for their surplus energy except in hatred and leader worship.
Some Thoughts on the Common Toad (1946)

Political language — and with variations this is true of all political parties, from Conservatives to Anarchists — is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.
Politics and the English Language (1946)

In a Society in which there is no law, and in theory no compulsion, the only arbiter of behaviour is public opinion. But public opinion, because of the tremendous urge to conformity in gregarious animals, is less tolerant than any system of law. When human beings are governed by "thou shalt not", the individual can practise a certain amount of eccentricity: when they are supposedly governed by "love" or "reason", he is under continuous pressure to make him behave and think in exactly the same way as everyone else.
Politics vs. Literature: An Examination of Gulliver's Travels (1946)

A tragic situation exists precisely when virtue does not triumph but when it is still felt that man is nobler than the forces which destroy him.
Lear, Tolstoy and the Fool (1947)

To see what is in front of one's nose needs a constant struggle.
In Front of Your Nose (22 March, 1946)

He who controls the past controls the future. He who controls the present controls the past.

WAR IS PEACE -FREEDOM IS SLAVERY -IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH

The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power.

-1984

If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face— forever.

ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUALBUT SOME ANIMALS ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS.

-Animal Farm

The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

-Animal farm

17. It would be a grave error, on the other hand, to say that Christ has no authority whatever in civil affairs, since, by virtue of the absolute empire over all creatures committed to him by the Father, all things are in his power. Nevertheless, during his life on earth he refrained from the exercise of such authority, and although he himself disdained to possess or to care for earthly goods, he did not, nor does he today, interfere with those who possess them. Non eripit mortalia qui regna dat caelestia.[27]
