“There can be no real peace while one American is dying some place in the world... for the rest of us. We are at war with the most dangerous enemy that has ever faced mankind in his long climb from the swamp to the stars, and it has been said if we lost that war, and in doing so lost this way of freedom of ours, history will record with the greatest astonishment that those who had the most to lose did the least to prevent its happening... If we lost freedom here, there is no place to escape to. This is the last stand on Earth.” — Ronald Reagan

"If a nation values anything more than freedom, it will lose its freedom; and the irony of it is that if it is comfort or money that it values more, it will lose that too." WILLIAM SOMERSET MAUGHAM

"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and success of liberty."
-John F. Kennedy (JFK)

"In cases like this one, where there are serious questions
and substantial doubts, our society, our laws, and our
courts should have a presumption in favor of life."
--President George W. Bush ++ "Supporters of Michael
Schiavo's effort to end his wife's life have asked how
conservatives, who claim to believe in the sanctity of
marriage, can fail to respect his husbandly authority.
The most obvious answer is that a man's authority as a
husband does not supersede his wife's rights as a human
being -- a principle we never thought we'd see liberals
question." --James Taranto ++ "The question is not
whether the suffering and dying person's life should
be terminated, the question is what kind of nation
will we become if they are? Their physical death is
preceded only by our moral death!" --William Federer
++ "It is too...easy to be cavalier and heroic about
'dying with dignity' when somebody else is doing the
dying." --Lawrence Henry

"Let us therefore rely on the goodness of the cause, and the aid of the supreme being, in whose hands victory is, to animate and encourage us to great and noble action."-- George Washington

In this blessed land, there is always a better tomorrow.
Four years ago, I spoke to you of a new beginning, and we
have accomplished that. But in another sense,
our new beginning is a continuation of that beginning
created two centuries ago when, for the first time in
history, government, the people said, was not our master,
it is our servant; its only power that which we the people
allow it to have. That system has never failed us, but for
a time we failed the system. We asked things of goverment
that government was not equipped to give.
We yielded authority to the national government that
properly belonged to states or to local governments
or to the people themselves. We allowed taxes and
inflation to rob us of our earnings and savings and
watched the great industrial machine that had made
us the most productive people on earth slow down and the
number of unemployed increase. By 1980 we knew it was
time to renew our faith,to strive with all our strength
toward the ultimate in individual freedom, consistent
with an orderly society. We believed then and now;
there are no limits to growth and human progress
when men and women are free to follow their dreams.
, and we were right to believe that." --Ronald Reagon

"If we desire to avoid insult, we must be able to repel it; if we desire to secure peace, one of the most powerful instruments of our rising prosperity, it must be known that we are at all times ready for war." --George Washington

Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve niether Liberty nor Safety.

-Benjamin Franklin
