Nobody
seriously questions the principle that it is the function of
mass culture to maintain public morale, and certainly nobody
in the mass audience objects to having his morale
maintained.
-- Robert Warshow
Let us with
caution indulge the supposition that morality can be
maintained without religion. Reason and experience both
forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in
exclusion of religious principle.
-- George Washington
1732-1799, First President of
the USA
To set up as a
standard of public morality a notion which can neither be
defined nor conceived is to open the door to every kind of
tyranny.
-- Simone Weil
1910-1943, French
Philosopher, Mystic
Moral
indignation is jealousy with a halo.
-- H.G. Wells
1866-1946, British-born
American Author
