―George Berkeley, Philosopher

“Politics is a matter of opinion; freedom demands the right to be wrong.

—Yours truly

 Thus says the Lord:

    and ask for the ancient paths,
where the good way lies; and walk in it,

— Jeremiah 6:16

“Your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God”

—1Corinthians 2:5
