Happy Birthday, America!


As we celebrate independence, freedom, and liberty on this July 4th, reflect on these Presidential quotations with me. Freedom was not free. Let us never take it lightly.

The American Revolution was a beginning, not a consummation. ~Woodrow Wilson

This, then, is the state of the Union: free and restless, growing and full of hope. So it was in the beginning. So it shall always be, while God is willing, and we are strong enough to keep the faith. ~Lyndon B. Johnson

Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not themselves. ~Abraham Lincoln

Freedom has its life in the hearts, the actions, the spirit of men and so it must be daily earned and refreshed -- else like a flower cut from its life-giving roots, it will wither and die. ~Dwight D. Eisenhower
