If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed.

An empty stomach is not a good political adviser.

He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead his eyes are closed.

I do not believe in the God of theology who rewards good and punishes evil.

Nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced.
