More quotes by Taylor Caldwell
Mankind adores its betrayers, and murders its saviors.
Taylor Caldwell
The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced. If the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt, people must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.
Taylor Caldwell
Animals do not betray they do not exploit they do not oppress they do not enslave they do not sin. They have their being, and their being is honest, and who can say this of man?
Taylor Caldwell
I am not alone at all, I thought. I was never alone at all. And that, of course, is the message of Christmas. We are never alone. Not when the night is darkest, the wind coldest, the world seemingly most indifferent. For this is still the time God chooses.

Taylor Caldwell
I am the skeptic of skeptics.
Taylor Caldwell
The more wants a man has, the less freedom.
Taylor Caldwell
My relatives used to laugh when I talked of being a writer.
Taylor Caldwell
Money? I lost all taste for it.
Taylor Caldwell
I'm not that interested in people
Taylor Caldwell
Men who retain irony are not to be trusted. They can't always resist an impulse to tickle themselves.
Taylor Caldwell
People are scared to death of dying. I am the opposite.
Taylor Caldwell
But what was a body? Dust, dung, urine, itches. It was the light within which was important, and it was not significant if that light endured after death, or if the soul was blinded eternally in the endless night of the suspired flesh.
Taylor Caldwell
