All Quotes by Heywood Broun

We are under no delusions as to the innate goodness even of very small children. They are bad a great deal of the time, but before it has been knocked out of them, they see no limit to the potentialities of the human will. Theirs is the faith to move mountains, because they do not yet know the fearful heft of them.

Heywood Broun

Nobody talks so constantly about God as those who insist that there is no God.
