More From Robert Burton
- "Worldly wealth is the Devil’s bait; and those whose minds feed upon riches recede, in general, from real happiness, in proportion as their stores increase, as the moon, when she is fullest, is farthest from the sun."
- "To enlarge or illustrate this power and effect of love is to set a candle in the sun."
- "Great feelings will often take the aspect of error, and great faith the aspect of illusion."

- "Leadership must be established from the top down."― Sam Nunn
- "I look back to when I got divorced in the late 1970s. When that happened, I was so broken up. After that, I decided to seek God for my life and my next marriage."― Ricky Skaggs
- "Straight couples don’t have to be monogamous to be married or married to be monogamous. Monogamy no more defines marriage than the presence of children does. Monogamy isn’t compulsory and its absence doesn’t invalidate a marriage."― Dan Savage
