TUESDAY QUOTE OF THE WEEK CCCVI

FINDING TRUTH WHEREVER IT MAY BE FOUND:  This week's quotes taken from last month's Chesterton Society of St. Sebastian reading of the first half of, "The Man Who Was Thursday."

 

QUOTE I: “It may be conceded to the mathematicians that four is twice two. But two is not twice one; two is two thousand times one.” 

 

QUOTE II: “Thieves respect property; they merely wish the property to become their property that they may more perfectly respect it.” 

 

QUOTE III: “Moderate strength is shown in violence, supreme strength is shown in levity.”
