Eric Williams | 64 comments I tried adding the following quote:

By a kind of surprising intuition, Don Bosco knew that selfishness, bearing injustice and hatred, was at the bottom of this modern society, forever prattling about equality, philanthropy, and fraternity. He felt the sting of the sarcasm and of the tragedy of the common people proclaimed "sovereign" in theory, but in fact reduced to slavery by this blustering modern liberalism, which raised the flickering torch of human "reason" against the eternal light. Don Bosco set himself to bring back the multitudes to the only "Heart" that understood their needs.

Instead of it "going through", I got the message "1 error prohibited this quote from being saved:" but it didn't actually give a reason, just "Please try again later." This sort of thing has been happening over and over again for the last couple months: It won't actually save the quote but also won't give a reason for not saving it. Sometimes when I tried some time later to save it, the quote might (but not always) get saved.

Can someone else try to save this particular quote?
