When the Church becomes closed, she becomes an ailing Church, she falls ill! That is a danger. . . .A Church closed in on herself is the same, a sick Church.

    Country   War   Men  
    Ernest Hemingway (2012). “Hemingway on War”, p.304, Simon and Schuster

  • At times of crisis or distress, it's poems that people turn to. (Poetry) still has a power to speak to people's feelings, maybe in a way that fiction, because it works in a longer way, can't.

  • The unphilosophical majority among men are the ones most helplessly dependent on their era's dominant ideas.

They know only what they have always been taught.

    Men   Ideas   Majority  
    Leonard Peikoff (1983). “Ominous Parallels”, p.179, Penguin
