{"quotes":[{"text":"In any case, you can't have effective allegory in times when people are swept this way and that by momentary convictions, because everyone will read it differently. You can't indicate moral values when morality changes with what is being done, because there is no accepted basis of judgment. And you cannot show the operation of grace when grace is cut off from nature or when the very possibility of grace is denied, because no one will have the least idea of what you are about.","author":"Flannery O'Connor","tags":["allegorical-interpretation","allegory","grace","moral-values","morality","perception","world-view","worldview","writing","writing-craft","writing-fiction"],"id":27464,"author_id":"Flannery+O%27Connor"},{"text":"The strength of a man is in his character.

Such a society is already implicitly atheist and so must slowly but relentlessly apply itself to the dissolution of transcendent values. It cannot allow ultimate goods to distract us from proximate goods. Our sacred writ is advertising, our piety is shopping, our highest devotion is private choice. God and the soul too often hinder the purely acquisitive longings upon which the market depends, and confront us with values that stand in stark rivalry to the only truly substantial value at the center of the social universe: the price tag.","author":"David Bentley Hart","tags":["consumerism","god","materialism","moral-values","values"],"id":256049,"author_id":"David+Bentley+Hart"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":16,"pages":2,"next":"?page=2\u0026page_size=10"}}
