"As long as we are thinking of natural values we must say that the sun looks down on nothing half so good as a household laughing together over a meal, or two friends talking over a pint of beer, or a man alone reading a book that interests him; and that all economies, politics, laws, armies, and institutions, save insofar as they prolong and multiply such scenes, are a mere ploughing the sand and sowing the ocean, a meaningless vanity and vexation of the spirit. Collective activities are, of course, necessary, but this is the end to which they are necessary.”

Isaiah 49:15-16

15 "Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!

16 See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are ever before me."

"Men are qualified for civil liberty in exact proportion to their disposition to put moral chains upon their own appetites, — in proportion as their love to justice is above their rapacity, — in proportion as their soundness and sobriety of understanding is above their vanity and presumption, — in proportion as they are more disposed to listen to the counsels of the wise and good, in preference to the flattery of knaves. Society cannot exist, unless a controlling power upon will and appetite be placed somewhere; and the less of it there is within, the more there must be without. It is ordained in the eternal constitution of things, that men of intemperate minds cannot be free. Their passions forge their fetters."

“When you say that [without faith, a man can no more receive Christ or take any steps towards it than a dead man can walk or speak,] I respond:

1. This doesn’t prove that faith is equivalent to a power or capacity in the same way. It simply highlights its absolute necessity without addressing its nature. For example, if you show an illiterate person a Greek or Hebrew book, they can’t read it, just like a dead person can’t—both scenarios are truly impossible in a combined sense. However, in one case, it’s merely a lack of skill or habit, while in the other, it’s a natural ability. Similarly, it’s true that a habitual sinner may struggle to do good, just as a leopard can’t change its spots or a person can’t change their skin color. Yet, if you’re suggesting that they’re equally distant from actual change as a dead person, it’s not an accurate comparison. A dead person lacks both natural faculties and moral inclination or power, while an unbeliever lacks only the latter.”

Those with the ability to console, help, or lead entire legions are often feulled by a mere one or two individuals, who loyalty does so for them.

"The man who lives in a small community lives in a much larger world. He knows much more of the fierce variety and uncompromising divergences of men…In a large community, we can choose our companions. In a small community, our companions are chosen for us. Thus in all extensive and highly civilized society groups come into existence founded upon sympathy, and shut out the real world more sharply than the gates of a monastery. There is nothing really narrow about the clan; the thing which is really narrow is the clique."
