Give me liberty or give me d

The liberties of a people never were, nor ever will be, secure, when the transactions of their rulers may be concealed from them.

This is all the inheritance I give to my dear family. The religion of Christ will give them one which will make them rich indeed.

If this be treason, make the most of it!

United we stand, divided we fall. Let us not split into factions which must destroy that union upon which our existence hangs.

The distinctions between Virginians, Pennsylvanians, New Yorkers, and New Englanders are no more. I Am Not A Virginian, But An American!

[Our Constitution] is an instrument for the people to restrain the government.

God made me blind and unable to walk. BIG DEAL! He gave me the ability... the musical gifts I have... the great opportunity to meet new people.

I never wanted to be safe... I wanted to be good.

God urges us to bring our concerns to Him—not just petitions about our own needs, but also intercessions for others. [The apostle] Paul said . . . “Brothers, pray for us” [1 Thessalonians 5:25 NIV].

I'm trying to simplify my life, I guess that's my latest project.

And even if they don't find what they're looking for, isn't it enough to be out walking together in the sunlight?

When it becomes really impossible to get away and sleep, then the will to live evaporates of its own accord.

A lot of us spend our lives assuming we are going to get around to those things we want to do.

I believe in myself and in Saint Therese.

For the only great men among the unfree and the oppressed are those who struggle to destroy the oppressor.
