Freedom does not mean doing what you can get away with, doing what you please. It means, instead, having the opportunity to do what you ought to do--for family, and for community, and for humanity as a whole.
Alan Keyes
Image
We have created an educational system, funded throughout the country by taxpayer dollars, that systematically turns our children away from the truth that makes them free.
Alan Keyes
Image
I frankly don't care if you agree with my stand on abortion. I take that stand because no other stand is consistent with decent principles, and no other standard is consistent with the will of God.
Alan Keyes
Image
Our first responsibility is not to ourselves. Our first responsibility is to our country and to our God.
Alan Keyes
Image
When we surrender moral government to the courts, we have surrendered the very essence of freedom we have surrendered its only real meaning, and we will not be free again until we get it back.
Alan Keyes
Image
It is the absence of bars that makes a beast free - but only the truth can make a man free.
Alan Keyes
Image
There can be no self-government without self-discipline. There can be no self-government without self-control. There can be no liberty unless it is grounded in moral discipline and the ability to do what is right.

That money was for working eight to twelve hour days ... it was not a welfare check.

Rights don't come from human documents. The very idea is only worthy of contempt. Human documents are nothing but pieces of paper, they are nothing but words--until by will, and conscience, and courage, and commitment, human beings turn them into reality.
Alan Keyes
Image
Our founders understood that divine authority was necessary in order to establish a ground on which the weak, the defenseless, the powerless, the poor and the wretched would be able to stand, in the face of every human power whatsoever, and demand respect for their human rights and dignity.

Selfish hedonism is not a pejorative. It is a description - an exactly accurate description of what is involved in homosexual relations.
Alan Keyes
Image
I accept the Republican nomination for the U.S. Senate, to represent the State of Illinois.
Alan Keyes
Image
Freedom is first of all a responsibility before the God from whom we come.
Alan Keyes
Image
A callous disregard for the claims of innocent human life is the heart and soul of the evil of terrorism.
Alan Keyes
Image
We stand on no high moral plateau in our time. We are, in fact, plumbing depths of depravity unknown to our ancestors--and whatever may have been the evil in which they engaged, at least they were willing to acknowledge the principle by which their evil was condemned. We have even turned our back on the principle.

Anything the government gives you is just another link in the chains that destroy your liberty.

The Assault Weapons Ban deals with a fictional distinction. You have guns that are exactly the same guns as are banned, in function, that were banned because of the way they look. And you know, that's the whole truth of this policy: it's to make politicians look as if they are doing something, when in point of fact, they are doing nothing.
Alan Keyes
Image
At the root of the assault on our liberties is, in fact, an assault on our character--an assault that assumes that we are not good enough to be free, and that aims to make sure that we are no longer strong enough, courageous enough, disciplined enough to be a free people.
Alan Keyes
Image
If the Declaration of Independence states our creed, there can be no right to abortion, since it means denying the most fundamental right of all to the unborn child, the right to life.
Alan Keyes

The First Amendment isn't about free thought and free opinion and free belief. The First Amendment is about free exercise: the carrying into practice of religious principles and beliefs and convictions.
