A society in which there are high levels of voluntary activity will simply be a better, happier place than one where there are not Picture Quote #1

Dreams are where we visit the many lands and landscapes of human possibility and discover the one where we feel at home. The great religious leaders were all dreamers Picture Quote #1

Europe is dying. That is one of the unsayable truths of our time. We are undergoing the moral equivalent of climate change and no one is talking about it Picture Quote #1

Freedom is not won by merely overthrowing a tyrannical ruler or an oppressive regime. That is usually only the prelude to a new tyranny, a new oppression Picture Quote #1

Governments cannot make marriages or turn feckless individuals into responsible citizens. That needs another kind of change agent Picture Quote #1

Religion is the best antidote to the individualism of the consumer age. The idea that society can do without it flies in the face of history and, now, evolutionary biology Picture Quote #1

Religiosity turns out to be the best indicator of civic involvement: it’s more accurate than education, age, income, gender or race Picture Quote #1

Some years ago there was a study to discover the most stressful occupation. It turned out not to be the head of a large business, football manager or prime minister, but rather: bus driver Picture Quote #1

Technology gives us power, but it does not and cannot tell us how to use that power. Thanks to technology, we can instantly communicate across the world, but it still doesn’t help us know what to say Picture Quote #1

The world we build tomorrow is born in the stories we tell our children today. Politics moves the pieces. Education changes the game Picture Quote #1

True freedom requires the rule of law and justice, and a judicial system in which the rights of some are not secured by the denial of rights to others Picture Quote #1

We need to rediscover the idea of the common good and work together to build a home Picture Quote #1

While everyone else is thinking about economics and politics, executive salaries and the future of the euro, do the opposite, even if it’s hard. Invest in the spirit Picture Quote #1

Find people not to envy but to admire. Do not the profitable but the admirable deed. Live by ideals Picture Quote #1

When we love and make loving commitments, we create families and communities within which people can grow and take risks, knowing that hands will be there to catch them should they fall Picture Quote #1

Cyberspace can’t compensate for real space. We benefit from chatting to people face to face Picture Quote #1

While we can remember the past, we cannot write the future. Only our children, the future of our community, can do that Picture Quote #1

Religious ritual is a way of structuring time so that we, not employers, the market or the media, are in control. Life needs its pauses, its chapter breaks, if the soul is to have space to breathe Picture Quote #1

Europe today is the most secular region in the world. Europe is the only region in the world experiencing population decline. Wherever you turn today the more religious the community, the larger on average are their families Picture Quote #1

A survey carried out across the U. S. between 2004 and 2006 showed that frequent church- or synagogue-goers are more likely to give money to charity Picture Quote #1

Britain, relative to the U. S., is a highly secular society. Philanthropy alone cannot fill the gap left by government cutbacks. And the sources of altruism go deep into our evolutionary past Picture Quote #1

Freedom... leads those who have more than they need to share with those who have less Picture Quote #1

When money rules, we remember the price of things and forget the value of things, and that is dangerous Picture Quote #1
