"A coward is incapable of exhibiting love; it is the prerogative of the brave."
"A man who was completely innocent, offered himself as a sacrifice for the good of others, including his enemies, and became the ransom of the world. It was a perfect act."
"
A 'No' uttered from the deepest conviction is better than a 'Yes' merely uttered to please, or worse, to avoid trouble."
"A religion that takes no account of practical affairs and does not help to solve them is no religion."
"A small body of determined spirits fired by an unquenchable faith in their mission can alter the course of history."

They wanted to kill King James and the king’s leaders.Why did Guy Fawkes want to kill King James 1st and the king’s leaders?
When Queen Elizabeth 1st took the throne of England she made some laws against the Roman Catholics. Guy Fawkes was one of a small group of Catholics who felt that the government was treating Roman Catholics unfairly. They hoped that King James 1st would change the laws, but he didn't.
