To quote or not to quote

You all are going to be subjected to the fact that I dug up a list of Chesterton quotes, and as long as I have a fascination with them I will probably be posting them here. Actually I have squirreled away lots of lists of quotes, but I have been able to contain myself so far.

Maybe I should bring back the Quote of the Day from years past.

WE had talked for about half an hour about politics and God; for men always talk about the most important things to total strangers. It is because in the total stranger we perceive man himself; the image of God is not disguised by resemblances to an uncle or doubts of the wisdom of a moustache.
