Theodore Roosevelt·1910Americanism means the virtues of courage, honor, justice, truth, sincerity, and hardihood—the virtues that made America. The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living and the get-rich-quick theory of life.
Abraham Lincoln·1863…That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom.
Daniel Webster·1830The principle of free governments adheres to the American soil. It is bedded in it, immovable as its mountains.
