Famous quotes containing the words church and/or leadership:

    Waste and void. Waste and void. And darkness on the face of the deep.
    Has the Church failed mankind, or has mankind failed the
    Church?
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    This I do know and can say to you: Our country is in more danger now than at any time since the Declaration of Independence. We don’t dare follow the Lindberghs, Wheelers and Nyes, casting suspicion, sowing discord around the leadership of Franklin D. Roosevelt. We don’t want revolution among ourselves.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
