G. K. Chesterton on Catholic Church

“The Catholic Faith, which always preserves the unfashionable virtue, is at this moment alone sustaining the independent intellect of man.”

“As for the general view that the Church was discredited by the War—they might as well say that the Ark was discredited by the Flood. When the world goes wrong, it proves rather that the Church is right. The Church is justified, not because her children do not sin, but because they do.”
