Here are some of the week’s most notable quotes.
“We may have to fight and die for our faith. I hope it doesn’t come to that, but if it does, we will.”

“Rose, you know I appreciate you being here. You’re 18 years old, you’re a little young and naive.”

“I think we need to be careful. The audio clearly does not match the video on values in the GOP today. This is not Ronald Reagan’s party who’s talking about a shining city on a hill, who’s showing mercy for immigrants who come here seeking for a better life for their family. This is something that’s markedly departed from that, and I would say the country will recover. I worry the church will not recover quite as quickly. We’ll pay a price for this period in our history.”

“The lie told in its place on a plaque outlasting 10 Texas governors should not survive the tenure of an 11th. Governor Abbott, take down that plaque.”
