G.K. Chesterton Quotes

I See Everything, Everything That There Is. Why Does Each Thing On The Earth War Against Each Other Thing? Why Does Each Small Thing In The World Have To Fight Against The World Itself? Why Does A Fly Have To Fight The Whole Universe? Why Does A Dandelion Have To Fight The Whole Universe? So That Each Thing That Obeys Law May Have The Glory And Isolation Of The Anarchist. So That Each Man Fighting For Order May Be As Brave And Good A Man As The Dynamiter. So That The Real Lie Of Satan May Be Flung Back In The Face Of This Blasphemer, So That By Tears And Torture We May Earn The Right To Say To This Man, 'You Lie!' No Agonies Can Be Too Great To Buy The Right To Say To This Accuser, 'We Also Have Suffered.' It Is Not True That We Have Never Been Broken. We Have Been Broken Upon The Wheel. It Is Not True That We Have Never Descended From These Thrones. We Have Descended Into Hell.
