More quotes by William Jennings Bryan
All the ills from which America suffers can be traced to the teaching of evolution.
William Jennings Bryan
God may be a matter of indifference to the evolutionists, and a life beyond may have no charm for them, but the mass of mankind will continue to worship their creator and continue to find comfort in the promise of their Savior that he has gone to prepare a place for them.
William Jennings Bryan
We have our thoughts, our hopes, our fears, and yet we know that in a moment a change may come over any one of us that will convert a living, breathing human being into a mass of lifeless clay.
William Jennings Bryan
Our government conceived in freedom and purchased with blood can be preserved only by constant vigilance.
William Jennings Bryan
No greater victory can be won by citizens or soldiers than to transform temporary foes into permanent friends.
William Jennings Bryan
Nation after nation, when at the zenith of its power, has proclaimed itself invincible because its army could shake the earth with its tread and its ships could fill the seas, but these nations are dead, and we must build upon a different foundation if we would avoid their fate.
William Jennings Bryan
If it weren't for the lawyers we wouldn't need them.
William Jennings Bryan
If God himself was not willing to use coercion to force man to accept certain religious views, man, uninspired and liable to error, ought not to use the means that Jehovah would not employ.
William Jennings Bryan
Atheists have just as much civil right to teach atheism as Christians have to teach Christianity agnostics have just as much right to teach agnosticism as Christians have to teach their religion.
William Jennings Bryan
There is no more reason to believe that man descended from an inferior animal than there is to believe that a stately mansion has descended from a small cottage.
William Jennings Bryan
Christ has made of death a narrow starlit strip between the companionships of yesterday and the reunions of tomorrow.
William Jennings Bryan
The people of Nebraska are for free silver and I am for free silver. I will look up the arguments later.
William Jennings Bryan
Most of the temptations that come to us to sell the soul come in connection with the getting of money.
William Jennings Bryan
If there is no God there is no hereafter. When, therefore, one drives God out of the universe he closes the door of hope upon himself.
William Jennings Bryan
Agnosticism is the natural attitude of the evolutionist. How can a brute mind comprehend spiritual things?
William Jennings Bryan
No one can earn a million dollars honestly.
William Jennings Bryan
The parents have a right to say that no teacher paid by their money shall rob their children of faith in God and send them back to their homes skeptical, or infidels, or agnostics, or atheists.
William Jennings Bryan
Never be afraid to stand with the minority when the minority is right, for the minority which is right will one day be the majority.
William Jennings Bryan
The Rock of Ages is more important than the age of rocks.
William Jennings Bryan
Next to the ministry I know of no more noble profession than the law. The object aimed at is justice, equal and exact, and if it does not reach that end at once it is because the stream is diverted by selfishness or checked by ignorance. Its principles ennoble and its practice elevates.
