They see nothing wrong in the rule that to the victor belongs the spoils.~ William Marcy Now the truth of the matter is, there is nothing wrong with this country. Please. The message I want to leave with you is that there's nothing wrong with this country that the proper leadership won't cure. We've been here before. In 1787, the economy of our nation was in absolute chaos and as a consequence, they met in Philadelphia to form a new country, and when they did, they did the right things, and in the second State of the Union address, which was written at that time by George Washington, he said the foundations, the economic foundations of our nation are on such sound footing that it would have been a madman would have suspected 3 years ago. The fact is that the chaos that they're creating doesn't mean that America can or has to be in decline. It means that we need to remove them as rapidly as possible and get people that know what to do and America will continue to climb.~ Bob McEwen I don't measure a man's success by how high he climbs but how high he bounces when he hits bottom.~ General George S. Patton, Jr. Liberty knows nothing but victories. Soldiers call Bunker Hill a defeat; but liberty dates from it though Warren lay dead on the field.~ Wendell Phillips Whether in chains or in laurels, liberty knows nothing but victories.~ Wendell Phillips You can no more win a war than you can win an earthquake.~ Jeannette Rankin If an American is to amount to anything he must rely upon himself, and not upon the State; he must take pride in his own work, instead of sitting idle to envy the luck of others. He must face life with resolute courage, win victory if he can, and accept defeat if he must, without seeking to place on his fellow man a responsibility which is not theirs.~ Theodore Roosevelt It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.~ Theodore Roosevelt You just can't beat the person who never gives up.~ Babe Ruth By a Declaration, Liberty is born. With Courage she is nourished, and with unceasing Commitment she is guarded.~ Eric Schaub True education makes for inequality; the inequality of individuality, the inequality of success, the glorious inequality of talent, of genius; for inequality, not mediocrity, individual superiority, not standardization, is the measure of the progress of the world.~ Felix E. Schelling Once again prosperous and successful crime goes by the name of virtue; good men obey the bad, might is right and fear oppresses law.~ Lucius Annaeus Seneca It is a rough road that leads to the heights of greatness.~ Lucius Annaeus Seneca Of war men ask the outcome, not the cause.~ Lucius Annaeus Seneca Unjust rule never abides continually.~ Lucius Annaeus Seneca Virtue alone affords everlasting and peace-giving joy; even if some obstacle arise, it is but like an intervening cloud, which floats beneath the sun but never prevails against it.~ Lucius Annaeus Seneca Live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about his religion. Respect others in their views and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and of service to your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, or even a stranger, if in a lonely place. Show respect to all people, but grovel to none. When you rise in the morning, give thanks for the light, for your life, for your strength. Give thanks for your food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason to give thanks, the fault lies in yourself. Abuse no one and no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.~ Tecumseh In the beginning of a change the patriot is a scarce man and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him for then it costs nothing to be a patriot.~ Mark Twain Give the American people a good cause, and there's nothing they can't lick.~ John Wayne There is such a thing as a nation being so right it does not need to convince others by force that it is right.~ Woodrow Wilson Previous 20 quotes Next 20 quotes Share on Facebook Tweet Email Print
