If man asks for many laws it is only because he is sure that his neighbor needs them; privately he is an unphilosophical anarchist, and thinks laws in his own case superfluous.

Man became free when he recognized that he was subject to law.

Bankers know that history is inflationary and that money is the last thing a wise man will hoard

The ego is willing but the machine cannot go on. It's the last thing a man will admit, that his mind ages.

Man, not the earth, makes civilization.

Wherever men do things, other men will arise who will explain to them how things should be done.

No man who is in a hurry is quite civilised.

The greatest question of our time is not communism vs. individualism, not Europe vs. America, not even the East vs. the West; it is whether men can bear to live without God.

If a man is fortunate he will, before he dies, gather up as much as he can of his civilized heritage and transmit it to his children.
