More quotes by Alan Keyes
I read American sagas (of the west) and I do not see people who went in search of material things. I see people who wrote down that what they sought was an escape from an old world which dictated their conscience and established their merit based on who their parents.
Alan Keyes
Do we really think that a government-dominated education is going to produce citizens capable of dominating their government, as the education of a truly vigilant self-governing people requires?
Alan Keyes
Where do find the most persecuted Christians in the world?... in the classrooms of our government schools, where the assault is not upon the body, but the soul.
Alan Keyes
Our first responsibility is not to ourselves. Our first responsibility is to our country and to our God.
Alan Keyes
Without the basis in written law, and without the basis in our Constitution ratified by the people, judges can't make laws. And if we accept the notion that their dictates are law, then we have not only submitted to tyranny, we have abandoned a republican form of government.
Alan Keyes
It's like the neighborhood I would have grown up in, I think, if I had have grown up here.
Alan Keyes
The Declaration of Independence summarizes the civic principles of American life. It agrees with this biblical perspective when it affirms that we are all created equal and endowed by the Creator, God, with our unalienable rights.
Alan Keyes
We must reject dictatorship in whatever form it takes - and especially when it rears its head in our own midst on the bench.
Alan Keyes
You can't build marriage on a foundation of selfish hedonism, because that would be to promise people only roses, and marriage is also thorns.
Alan Keyes
It's in the private places of the heart that freedom is made or unmade by the discipline we create there.
Alan Keyes
There's not a single thing on offer in this all-too-temporary world for which you should ever sell your soul.
Alan Keyes
We must take away the government's credit card. With limits on both tax revenue and borrowing, the Federal government would finally be forced to get serious about spending cuts
Alan Keyes
It is the absence of bars that makes a beast free - but only the truth can make a man free.
Alan Keyes
Our success or failure is not in the hands of our leaders. It is in our.
Alan Keyes
Christians belong in American politics because there is not and cannot be a fundamental separation between our moral vocation and our citizenship.
Alan Keyes
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
It's about time we all faced up to the truth. If we accept the radical homosexual agenda, be it in the military or in marriage or in other areas of our lives, we are utterly destroying the concept of family.
Alan Keyes
That is one of the reasons I oppose this whole Affirmative Action business. We are not supposed to be judged based on what our ancestors did or suffered. We are supposed to be judged as individuals, based on what we are able to achieve.
Alan Keyes
The travesty of slavery wasn't physical abuse. It was the moral abuse of looking at a human being as if they are an animal.
Alan Keyes
Harden our hearts. To the innocents in the womb and we have hardened our hearts. To the need for compassion and mercy and. Fellow feeling. And charity. And decency in this world.
