America
The danger to America is not Barack Obama, but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president.
The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince.
The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools, such as those who made him their president.”
Prager Zeitungon
This quote came from the Czech Republic. Someone over there has it figured out. It was translated into English from an article in the Prague newspaper
America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves. ~Abraham Lincoln
“The Christian religion, is the religion of our country. From it are derived our prevalent notions of the character of God, the great moral governor of the universe. On its doctrines are founded the peculiarities of our free institutions.”[ “From no source has the author drawn more conspicuously than from the sacred Scriptures. From all these extracts from the Bible I make no apology.”
~William McGuffey
If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be. Where the press is free, and every man able to read, all is safe. ~Thomas Jefferson
Family
Your success as a family, our success as a society, depends not in what happens in the White House, but on what happens in your house. ~James E. Faust
Persistence
Temporary setbacks are overshadowed by persistence. ~Quentin L. Cook
“Nothing in the world can take the place of
Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than
unsuccessful men with talent.
“Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.” ~Calvin Coolidge
Pride
Pride is concerned with who is right. Humility is concerned with what is right. ~Ezra Taft Benson
