To the Shores of Need Past the Reefs of Greed Through the Squalls of Hate Sail on, sail on.”

“My objection to the church isn't that the preachers are cruel, hypocritical, actually wicked, though some of them are that, too - think of how many are arrested for selling fake stock, for seducing 14-year-old girls in orphanages under their care, for arson, for murder.

My chief objection is that 99% of sermons and Sunday School teachings are so agonizingly dull.”

No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.”
