George Mary Searle

George Mary Searle (27 June 1839 – 7 July 1918) was an astronomer and Catholic priest. Quotes As it is now, people have much less scruple against defrauding the government than they have against cheating an individual; and there is no reason why the government, in a socialist form, should acquire a peculiar sanctity in the general estimation.

Simply establishing it will not produce such a devotion.
