“I am the last man in the world to say that the succor which is given us from America is not in itself something to rejoice at greatly. But I also say that I can see more in the knowledge that America is going to win a right to be at the conference table when the terms of peace are discussed. . . . It would have been a tragedy for mankind if America had not been there, and there with all her influence and power.” IfsMenWorldHas BeensI CanLastsAmericaWinningGivenTermInfluenceMankindTragedyTablesRejoiceConferencesInfluence And Power Author:David Lloyd George

In proportion as they doubt the truth of their own doctrines, they are desirous to gain the attestation of another understanding: and industriously labour to win a proselyte, and eagerly catch at the slightest pretense to dignify their sect with a distinguished name.” MindLongReasonWinningNamesUnderstandingOpinionDoubtAtheismInfluenceGainsAtheistConversionDoctrineProportionLabourDistinguishedPretenseSectsSolicitation Book:The Beauties of Samuel Johnson: Consisting of Maxims and Observations, Moral, Critical, and Miscellaneous Source: The Beauties of Samuel Johnson: Consisting of Maxims and Observations, Moral, Critical, and Miscellaneous
“The Christian who drinks cannot win his drinking companions to Christ. The girl who dances will never win her dancing boyfriend!
