More From Gilbert K. Chesterton
- "Man is an exception, whatever else he is. If he is not the image of God, then he is a disease of the dust. If it is not true that a divine being fell, then we can only say that one of the animals went entirely off its head."
- "Courage is almost a contradiction in terms. It means a strong desire to live taking the form of readiness to die."
- "Fable is more historical than fact, because fact tells us about one man and fable tells us about a million men."
