"The Moral Law tells us the tune we have to play: our instincts are merely the keys."
C.S. Lewis
"Whenever you find a man who says he doesn't believe in a real Right and Wrong, you will find the same man going back on this a moment later."
C.S. Lewis
"It's not that we don't have enough scoundrels to curse; it's that we don't have enough good men to curse them."

Alexis de Tocqueville
"You find out more about God from the Moral Law than from the univerise in general just as you find out more about a man by listening to his conversation than by looking at a house he has built."
C.S. Lewis

Oscar Wilde
"Liberty cannot be established without morality, nor morality without faith."
Alexis de Tocqueville

Albert Camus
