"The heavens declare the glory of God; the stars transcribe a story. Stars form the handwriting on the surface of the sky. They hang in the heavens in order to be read." Patrick Henry Reardon "The Stars of Abraham" in Touchstone, July/August 2014.
"We cannot have a really human study of history or poetry or philosophy, or any of the natural sciences, while remaining fixed under the low ceiling of materialism. When we cease to look up, we cease to look at all." Anthony Esolen "Oriented Toward Love" in Touchstone, March/April 2014.
"Creation is good, and its various elements, properly ordered, achieve a faultless harmony. A human creature can deprive creation of its harmony by a swerving of the will. When a will swerves, the result is a loss of accord." Benjamin V. Beier "Augustine's Insight" in Touchstone, September/October 2014.
"I doubt there will be contraptions in heaven, but there will be music, and there will be good work done by skillful hands." S. M. Hutchens "The Dilemma of Horns" in Touchstone, July/August 2014.
"With distressing frequency, the Supreme Court has performed poorly, shortchanging rights plainly written in the Constitution and inventing illegitimate ones nowhere to be found in the text." Michael Stokes Paulsen "2014 Supreme Court Roundup" in First Things, November 2014.
"The celebration of diversity now erodes our ability to think clearly about religion and marriage." Naomi Schaefer Riley "Interfaith, Interracial" in First Things, November 2014.

"A merry Christmas to all; God bless us, everyone." Tiny Tim in "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens |
