“For what avail the plough or sail, Or land or life, if freedom fail?”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“You have to love a nation that celebrates its independence every July 4, not with a parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who file by the White House in a show of strength and muscle, but with family picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die from happiness. You may think you have overeaten, but it is patriotism.”
Erma Bombeck
“This nation will remain the land of the free only so long as it is the home of the brave.”
Elmer Davis
