“In a truly free society, individuals are granted responsibility for themselves. Freedom necessitates that we learn how to provide for ourselves, contributing value in whatever form, to generate personal income. We then decide how we wish to spend or save earned income; freedom is the reward for fulfilling personal responsibilities.”

“My challenge to every American is simple: reject the Left’s victim narrative and do it yourself.

“The truth as Joseph and his comrades discovered, was that the Islamic State's fighters were skilled butchers, but lousy soldiers. "They're only good at terrorizing people who aren't armed," he said. "They think they're good, but when we wake them up in the middle of the night, they would crap their pants.”

“The Lord works from the inside out. The world works from the outside in. The world would take people out of the slums. Christ would take the slums out of people, and then they would take themselves out of the slums.
The world would mold men by changing their environment. Christ changes men, who then change their environment. The world would shape human behavior, but Christ can change human nature.”
