Seldom does one man produce so many memorable one-liners as G.K. Chesterton – here are a few of my favorites:
A puritan is a person who pours righteous indignation into the wrong things.
All architecture is great architecture after sunset; perhaps architecture is really a nocturnal art, like the art of fireworks.
A man who says that no patriot should attack the war until it is over… is saying no good son should warn his mother of a cliff until she has fallen.
Without education we are in a horrible and deadly danger of taking educated people seriously.
True contentment is a thing as active as agriculture. It is the power of getting out of any situation all that there is in it. It is arduous and it is rare.
