Some of a collection of sayings by patriots, presidents, past world leaders:
 
***
 
"Freedom is an open window through which pours the sunlight of the
human spirit and human dignity. With the preservation of these moral
and spiritual qualities and with God's grace will come further
greatness for our country."

-- President Herbert Hoover
 
**
 
Tis not in numbers but in unity that our great strength lies.
 
~ Thomas Paine
 
**
 
"We have been called to heal wounds,
To unite what has fallen apart,
And to bring home those who have lost their way.
 
~~ St. Francis of Assissi
 
**
"You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich,
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by citing class hatred.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's initiative and independence.
You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves.
 
~~ Abraham Lincoln
 
**
 
There are only two ways to live your life.
One is as though nothing is a miracle.
The other is as if everything is.
 
~~ Albert Einstein
 
**
 
All the best to you from
the Master, Jesus Christ.
 
~~ Closing a letter to Philemon (and to each of us today!)
by Paul, The Message Bible
