Some birds are not meant to be caged."

A. Nony Mouse

 

"The more we remove God from our public life,

the more we remove the moral vocabulary

that gives our public institutions meaning."

Charles J. Chaput

"We Can't Be Silent" in First Things, May 2014.

 

"We may never budge one inch on what is essential.

We will not tell a lie

to please the world and win us the accolades."

Anthony Esolen

"Stand Firm" in Touchstone, May/June 2014.

 

"The more secularized we become,

the more we undermine the common good

and the more we feed the problems

that are hurting us as a nation."

Charles J. Chaput

"We Can't Be Silent" in First Things, May 2014.

 

"Truth is truth to the end of time.  Even if the battle appears lost,

let each Christian raise one sword at least against the lie."

Anthony Esolen

"Stand Firm" in Touchstone, May/June 2014.

 

"If we withhold our religious and moral beliefs

from our political debates

because of a misguided sense of good manners,

we are not being 'polite.'

On the contrary:  We're stealing from the public conversation."

Charles J. Chaput

"We Can't Be Silent" in First Things, May 2014.

 

"While there is breath in our lungs and blood in our hearts,

we will not cease to tell the truth,

and we will not bend one inch in homage to the idol."

Anthony Esolen

"Stand Firm" in Touchstone, May/June 2014.

 

"Actively witnessing to our convictions

and advancing what we believe

about key moral issues in public life is not 'coercion.'

It's an act of truth-telling.  It's an act of honesty. 

It's vital to the health of every democracy."

Charles J. Chaput

"We Can't Be Silent" in First Things, May 2014.

 

"And what is so rare as a day in June? 

Then, if ever, come perfect days."

James R. Lowell
