We become like that which we love. If we love what is base, we become base but if we love what is noble, we become noble.
Fulton J. Sheen
Image
Humility is dependence on God as pride is independence of Him. The humble soul is always the thankful soul.

The pacifist thinks that the alternative to war is peace it is not. Sometimes the alternative is oppression. Sometimes certain God-given rights and liberties can be preserved only by resistance to that which would destroy them. And to defend certain basic God-given rights and liberties is not immoral but righteous.

Why are those who are notoriously undisciplined and unmoral also most contemptuous of religion and morality? They are trying to solace their own unhappy lives by pulling the happy down to their own abysmal depths.
