ROBERT F. DRINAN

There is always a certain non-denominational piety which we expect from our President …. There are over 100 million Americans who have no religious affiliation.

I will be a priest forever.

I cannot dislike him [Gerald R. Ford] personally—he's cordial and gracious. But he's consistently wrong and consistency is a virtue of small minds. He's never proposed a constructive solution to anything.

The government has to be good, and just, and gentle.

There is an obvious and sometimes truly pathetic desire of Congressmen to be identified in the popular mind with those individuals who want more godliness in the schools and more fervor in our public piety.
