“Never let us utter what we never can know,
And chiefly when it works another's woe.”

“Promise me no promises,
So will I not promise you:
Keep we both our liberties,
Never false and never true:
Let us hold the die uncast,
Free to come as free to go:
For I cannot know your past,
And of mine what can you know?”

“You never will be saved by works; but let us tell you most solemnly that you never will be saved without works.”

“Science will never be used chiefly to pursue truth, or to improve human life. The uses of knowledge will always be as shifting and crooked as humans are themselves. Humans use what they know to meet their most urgent needs – even if the result is ruin.”

“Never initiate the use of force against another man. Never let his use of force against you remain unanswered by force.”

“Oh! let us never, never doubt
What nobody is sure about!”

“We pulled for you when the wind was against us and the sails were low.
Will you never let us go?”

“And history`s fingers never relax their grip, never leave us unmolested, can touch us even when we would never imagine their presence.”

“Let us never imagine that faith can ever be furthered by suppressing doubt, let alone by suppressing evidence. All truth is one, and religion must be as eager as science to know the truth as far as man can perceive it. If something we have treasured as truth is really contradicted by unanswerable evidence, then in the name of the God of truth we must part with it however venerable it may be. Let us never suppose that we can take over faith from our parents without examination, or believe anything merely because another says it is true. But let us not be content with a static agnosticism which never rouses itself to make inquiry. Let us examine the evidence and then in complete loyalty to its trend make a leap both of intellect and will, and, committing ourselves, acting as if all were established, try out in life the faith that carries us on wings after the hard road of fact and reason stops.”

“Let us never negotiate out of fear. But let us never fear to negotiate.”
