Some Famous
Quotes
I have sworn
upon the altar of God, eternal hostility against
every form of tyranny over the mind of man.
Thomas Jefferson
If the federal
government should overpass the just bounds of its
authority and make a tyrannical use of its powers,
the people, whose creature it is, must appeal to the
standard they have formed, and take such measures to
redress the injury done to the Constitution as the
exigency may suggest and prudence justify.
Alexander
Hamilton
Rebellion
against tyrants is obedience to God.
Benjamin
Franklin
"In the end, more than they wanted
freedom, they wanted security. They wanted a
comfortable life and they lost it all - security,
comfort and freedom. When the Athenians finally
wanted not to give to society, but for society to
give to them; when the freedom they wished for most
was the freedom from responsibility, then the
Athenians ceased to be free."
Edward Gibbons
"Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire"
“The enemy
is in front of us. The enemy is behind us. The enemy
is to the right and to the left. They can’t get away
this time!”
General Douglas Macarthur
“I have no more personal friends at
school. But you know what? I am not going to
apologize for speaking the name of Jesus. I am not
going to justify my faith to them, and I am not going to
hide the light that God has put into me. If I have
to sacrifice everything, I will. I will take it.
If my friends have to become my enemies for me to be with
my best friend, Jesus, then that’s fine with me.”
Rachel Scott, 17 Columbine
High School Martyr
"We cannot
diminish the value of one category of human life - The Unborn
- without diminishing the value of all human life.... there
is no cause more important."
Ronald Reagan
"The
moral principles and precepts contained in the Scriptures
ought to form the basis of all our civil constitutions and
laws. All the miseries and evils which men suffer
from vice, crime, ambition, injustice, oppression, slavery,
and war, proceed from their despising or neglecting the
precepts contained in the Bible.
Noah Webster
"The
choice before us is plain, Christ or chaos, conviction or
compromise, discipline or disintegration. I am rather
tired of hearing about our rights and privileges as American
Citizens. The time is come, it now is, when we ought
to hear about the duties and responsibilities of our citizenship.
America's future depends upon Her accepting and demonstrating
God's Government."
Peter Marshall
"Let
us develop the resources of our land, call forth its powers,
build up its institutions, promote all its great interests,
and see whether we also, in our day and generation, may
not perform something worthy to be remembered."
Daniel Webster
"All That
Is Necessary For The Triumph of Evil Is That Good Men Do
Nothing!"
Edmond Burke
"I not only
deny the allegation, I deny the allegator"
