Quotables from Chesterton

For the record, I liked Heretics better than Orthodoxy, though they are both very worthwhile reads. Here are a couple quotes, which I added to the Quotables page:

"We actually love ourselves more than we love joy."

"He says he is fleeing from his street because it is dull; he is lying. He is really fleeing from his street because it is a great deal too exciting. It is exciting because it is exacting; it is exacting because it is alive. He can visit Venice be cause to him the Venetians are only Venetians; the people in his own street are men."
