![]() We want to share with you several 4th of July quotes from famous Americans who have contributed so much to our freedoms and wonderful way of life. We are forever grateful. John F. Kennedy “And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.” “Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and success of liberty.” *************************** Peter Marshall “May we think of freedom not as the right to do as we please, but as the opportunity to do what is right.” *************************** Oliver Wendell Holmes “One flag, one land, one heart, one hand, one nation forevermore!” *************************** Marquis de Lafayette “Humanity has won its battle. Liberty now has a country.” ************************* Dwight D. Eisenhower “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.” ************************* George Bernard Shaw “Liberty is the breath of life to nations.” ************************** Condoleezza Rice “The essence of America—that which really unites us—is not ethnicity, or nationality, or religion. It is an idea—and what an idea it is: that you can come from humble circumstances and do great things. That it doesn’t matter where you came from, but where you are going.” ************************** Lee Greenwood “And I’m proud to be an American, where at least I know I’m free. And I won’t forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.” ************************** Benjamin Franklin “Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom, must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it.” *************************** Oscar Wilde“With freedom, books, flowers, and the moon, who could not be happy?” ****************************
