Chesterton

The Anchoress has a selection of Chesterton quotes. I was surprised to see the link at Instapundit, actually.

A Sample:
2) When a man says that democracy is false because most people are stupid, hit him smartly and with precision on the exact tip of the nose.
- Illustrated London News, 1905

24) I have a notion that the real advice I could give to a young journalist is simply this: to write an article for the Sporting Times and one for the Church Times and put them in the wrong envelopes…what is really the matter with almost every paper is that it is much too full of things suitable to the paper.
– Autobiography.
