In my view, the Christian religion is the most important and one of the first things in which all children, under a free government ought to be instructed.

The ecclesiastical establishments of Europe which serve to support tyrannical governments are not the Christian religion but abuses and corruptions of it.

No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people.

The most important things in life aren't things.

One of the most important things for an actor is to observe humanity.

If I were asked to say the most important things that lead to a successful life, I should say that, first of all, was integrity - unimpeachable integrity.
