"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

And so, my fellow americans: ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.

John F. Kennedy (1917 - 1963), Inaugural address, January 20, 1961

And I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free.

And I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.

Lee Greenwood

See All Quotations...

Only a respect for the law makes it possible for free men to dwell together in peace and progress.... Law is the adhesive force in the cement of society, creating order out of chaos and coherence in place of anarchy.

John F. Kennedy (1917 - 1963)

Above all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women. It is a weapon our adversaries in today's world do not have.

Ronald Reagan (1911-2004)

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.

Ronald Reagan (1911-2004

Dinesh D'Souza

If you take advantage of everything America has to offer, there’s nothing you can’t accomplish. 

Geraldine Ferraro

America will never run... And we will always be grateful that liberty has found such brave defenders.

George W. Bush (1946 - )

"The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of 'liberalism,' they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened."

Norman Thomas (1884-1968) (US Socialist Party Politician)

"I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.”" 

Dr Martin Luther King Jr, I Have a Dream: August 23, 1968

The nine most terrifying words in the English language are, 'I'm from the government and I'm here to help.'
