“To be evil at all, Satan needs good things he can abuse, things like intelligence, power and will. Those good things come from God.”
J. Budziszewski, How to Stay Christian in College

“...a marriage with Christ at the center of it pulls you right out of yourself. It teaches each partner, the husband and the wife, to forget about self for a while in care and sacrifice for the other. We come to ourselves by losing ourselves.”
J. Budziszewski, How to Stay Christian in College

“We may add that it is not an act of justice but of foolish injustice to pretend the sexes are the same. Justice is exercised in respectfully providing for the due needs of each.”
J. Budziszewski, What We Can't Not Know: A Guide
