As a blind man has no idea of colors, so have we no idea of the manner by which the all-wise God perceives and understands all things.

Basic to our democratic civilization are the principles and convictions that have bound us together as a nation. Among these are personal liberty, human rights, and the dignity of man. All these have their roots in a deeply held religious faith -- in a belief in God.

The more of himself man attributes to God, the less he has left in himself.

Man is a child of God, made in His image, and therefore must be respected as such. Until men see this everywhere, until nations see this everywhere, we will be fighting wars.

Every child comes with the message that God is not yet discouraged of man.

It is difficult to make a man miserable while he feels worthy of himself, and claims kindred to the great God who made him.
