Arnold J. Toynbee
  • A life which does not go into action is a failure.

  • As human beings, we are endowed with freedom of choice, and we cannot shuffle off our responsibility upon the shoulders of God or nature. We must shoulder it ourselves. It is our responsibility.

  • Sooner or later, man has always had to decide whether he worships his own power or the power of God.

  • Civilization is a movement and not a condition, a voyage and not a harbor.

  • History is a vision of God's creation on the move.
