Ayn Rand on Government, the Constitution, and Individual Rights
“The government was set to protect man from criminals-and the constitution was written to protect man from the government. The Bill of Rights was not directed at private citizens, but against the government-as an explicit declaration that individual rights supersede any public or social power.”
Ayn Rand
Right to Property and Human Rights – Ayn Rand Quote
“Just as man can’t exist without his body, so no rights can exist without the right to translate one’s rights into reality, to think, to work and keep the results, which means: the right of property.”
Ayn Rand
Quote About Longing and Another World by C. S. Lewis

C. S. Lewis
Keeping All of God’s Commandments – Quote by Russell M. Nelson
“Have faith to keep all the commandments of God, knowing that they are given to bless His children and bring them joy. [You] will encounter people who pick which commandments they will keep and ignore others that they choose to break. I call this the cafeteria approach to obedience. This practice of picking and choosing will not work. It will lead to misery. To prepare to meet God, one keeps all of His commandments. It takes faith to obey them, and keeping His commandments will strengthen that faith.”
Russell M. Nelson
Let Go of the Past and Live in the Present – Neale Donald Walsch

Neale Donald Walsch
Love and Service in Everyday Life – Quote by Russell M. Nelson
“When we love somebody, we show it by doing something nice. So learn to serve: find a need and fulfill a need. Surprise people with a good deed they hadn’t planned on. We have that opportunity at home, at school, and at church.”
Russell M. Nelson

Ayn Rand on Choice and Personal Responsibility

Look Straight and Act – Quote by Ayn Rand
“People create their own questions because they are afraid to look straight. All you have to do is look straight and see the road, and when you see it, don’t sit looking at it – walk.”
