“The love of country is a deep and universal instinct... Men who deny their national spiritual heritage in exchange for a vague and watery cosmopolitanism become less than men; they starve and dwarf their personalities; they turn into a sort of political eunuch.” Stanley Baldwin

“Recognize that your struggle and your suffering is the same as everyone else’s, I think that’s the beginning of a responsible life. Otherwise, we are in a continual savage battle with each other with no possible solution, political, social, or spiritual.” Leonard Cohen

"An unbelievable manifestation of the darkness and sin in our world". Cardinal Raymond Burke describing the Olympics Opening Ceremony

'If Venezuela had a “dictator,” there would be no elections, let alone an election where “dictator” Maduro gets only 52% of the vote.' S.L. Kanthan

“Uncontrolled immigration threatens to deconstruct the nation we grew up in and convert it into a conglomeration of peoples with almost nothing in common — not history, heroes, language, culture, faith, or ancestors. Balkanization beckons.” Pat Buchanan
