Why should the Jews be the only people who refuse to be talked about intelligently?
It is not that Jews are traitors, but rather that traitors are Jews.
My own taste in murder has always been rather for the knife of Brutus, which strikes upwards, than for the knife of Nero, which struck down.
A society is in decay, final or transitional, when common sense has really become very uncommon. Straightforward ideas appear strange or unfamiliar, and any thought that does not follow the conventional curve or twist, is supposed to be a sort of joke.
Our whole civilization is indeed very like the Titanic; alike in its power and its impotence, its security and its insecurity.
“The difficulty of explaining "why I am a Catholic" is that there are ten thousand reasons all amounting to one reason: that Catholicism is true.” -G.K. Chesterton

The modern world is madder than any satires on it.
I have met hundreds of men who said they would not object to a fair criticism, but I never met one man who admitted he had received one.
If things deceive us, it is by being more real than they seem. As ends in themselves they always deceive us; but as things tending to a greater end, they are even more real than we think them.
Everything is Being; but it is not true that everything is Unity.

It is not that Jews are traitors, but rather that traitors are Jews.
"Look at it this way. News is what a chap who doesn't care much about anything wants to read ... And it's only news until he's read it." - Evelyn Waugh, Scoop

For Britons who are itching for a new good pilgrimage of their own, a future saint of Great Britain: Chesterton's baptism.
This is the very Church where our beloved #Chesterton was baptized, and the place from where the Annual GK #Chesterton Walking #Pilgrimage starts each year. #GKCWalk #StGeorge And the pilgrimage site where we brought many people in these years.

This is the actual Chesterton quote. It’s often quoted as Neil Gaiman’s more pithy paraphrase of the quote: “Fairy tales are more than true, not because they tell children dragon’s exist, but because they tell children dragon’s can be defeated.”
Fairy Tales do not give the child his first idea of bogey. What they give the child is his first clear idea of the defeat of bogey. The baby has known the dragon intimately ever since he had an imagination. What the Fairy Tale provides for him is a St. George to kill the dragon.
G.K. Chesterton, The Englishman St George he was for England, And before he killed the dragon He drank a pint of English ale Out of an English flagon. For though he fast right readily In hair-shirt or in mail, It isn't safe to give him cakes Unless you give him ale. [1/3]
Recently, I made the decision to go home. There is of course so much more that went into this decision and that I plan to share in the future. But for now, praise be to God for His gentle, but relentless guiding of my heart toward Truth. “So do not fear, for I am with you; do…
I feel like GK would have been a prolific tweet master. This one is an evergreen tweet, and seems appropriate as I scroll through the Columbia student mass kayfabe event. Religion & liturgy is alive & in operation. The Spirit of ‘68 is never dead…it’s not even past.
“So strong is tradition that later generations will dream of what they have never seen.” G.K Chesterton
“What was not adequately realised, by those who merely talked about Progress, is simply this; that Progress is never merely the solving of problems; it is always also the setting of problems...” On Our Traffic Problems and Progress [1935]
“Tolerance is not a Christian value. Charity, justice, mercy, prudence, honesty--these are Christian values.” Archbishop Charles J. Chaput
I wrote a book on how Chesterton saw everything coming ahead of time but it’s not out yet … and I’m still trying to find a publisher. Will keep you posted.
I'm going to have a long discussion with G.K. Chesterton about how the hell he saw everything coming ahead of time... @TunaRJS
To bring death upon oneself in order to escape the other afflictions of this life, is to adopt a greater evil in order to avoid a lesser.
