Into the the air, into the earth, into the fire, I am with you.
Orson Scott Card
It is in the turmoil of chaos that we discover what, if anything, we are.
Orson Scott Card
Everybody dies. What matters is what you do between now and when it happens to you.
Orson Scott Card
Sickness and healing are in every heart death and deliverance in every hand.

Legalizing gay marriage is not about making it possible for gay people to become couples. It's about giving the Left the power to force anti-religious values on our children. Once they legalize gay marriage, it will be the bludgeon they use to make sure that it becomes illegal to teach traditional values in the schools.
Orson Scott Card
What am I now, Alai? Still good. At what? At--anything. There's a million soldiers who'd follow you to the end of the universe. I don't want to go to the end of the universe. So where do you want to go? They'll follow you. I want to go home, thought Ender, but I don't know where it is.

Orson Scott Card
If you give orders and explain nothing, you might get obedience, but you'll get no creativity.

Explaining to your men doesn't weaken their respect for you, it proves your respect for them.
Orson Scott Card
Humanity does not ask us to be happy. It merely asks us to be brilliant on its behalf.
Orson Scott Card

Orson Scott Card
I've learned much, Father, and this above all: that no station in life is above any other, if it's occupied by someone with a good heart.
Orson Scott Card
No matter how sexually attracted a man might be toward other men, or a woman toward other women, and no matter how close the bonds of affection and friendship might be within same-sex couples, there is no act of court or Congress that can make these relationships the same as the coupling between a man and a woman.
Orson Scott Card
Isn't it possible, he wondered, for one person to love another without trying to own each other? Or is that buried so deep in our genes that we can never get it out? Territoriality.
Orson Scott Card
You will learn to defeat the enemy.
Orson Scott Card
Apparently the Dutch now prided themselves on being better at queues than the English, which was absurd, because standing cheerfully in line was the English national sport.
Orson Scott Card
My college training was primarily in theatre, with an eye to becoming a director, actor, or producer.
Orson Scott Card
America is an empire that does not wish to be one we are easily discouraged from doing what must be done to maintain the global order that allows democracy and prosperity to flourish.
Orson Scott Card
The fear of death in the one place was not as strong as another kind of fear, the fear of a world gone crazy, a place where anything could happen, where nothing could be trusted, where nothing was certain. A terrible place.
Orson Scott Card
Faith doesn't mean you never doubt. It only means you never act upon your doubts.
Orson Scott Card
