Joe Lieberman Scary Quotations

[Religion is a way of reconstructing] what has come to feel like a crumbling moral framework in the life of our nation.

John Adams, second president of the United States, wrote that our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people.... George Washington warned us never to indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion.

While so much of our economic life is thriving, too much of our moral life is still stagnating. As a people, we need to reaffirm our faith.

We cannot fulfill that purpose [environmentalism] if we are heaping contempt on God's creation.

Let us break through some of the inhibitions that have existed to talk together across the flimsy lines of separation of faith, to talk together, to study together, to pray together, and ultimately to sing together His Holy name.

We know that the Constitution wisely separates church from state, but remember: the Constitution guarantees freedom of religion, not freedom from religion.

I miss the days when faith was discussed in public and not the most intimate details of our personal lives.
