Paul Johnson Quotes

The Bible Sees A Peculiar Virtue In Powerlessness, Appropriate To A People Which Has Seldom Possessed Power, And Suffered Much From Its Exercise; But It Also Sees Virtue In Achievement, And Achievement As The Sign Of Virtue, Especially Of Those Once Weak And Lowly. Both Joseph And Moses Had No Rights Of Birth, And Narrowly Survived Vulnerable Childhoods Or Youth; But Both Had The God-endowed Qualities To Bring Them To Greatness By Their Own Efforts.
