Nation evermore!

any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and success
of liberty.

to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Abraham Lincoln

In the truest sense, freedom cannot be bestowed; it must be

Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of
Happiness.
The Declaration of Independence July 4, 1776
We must be free not because we claim freedom, but because we
practice it.
William Faulkner
Where liberty is, there is my country.
Benjamin Franklin
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

the Atlantic not to find soil for their ploughs but to secure
liberty for their souls.

both orators and artillerymen shoot blank cartridges.

and full of hope. So it was in the beginning. So it shall always
be, while God is willing, and we are strong enough to keep the
faith.

Freedom's natal day is here.

See the flag above unfurled!
Hail the stars and stripes forever,
Dearest flag in all the world.

the birth of our nation more lives had been lost in celebrating
independence than in winning it.

men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it.

that all those who conduct themselves as worthy members of the
community are equally entitled to the protections of civil government.
I hope ever to see America among the foremost nations of justice
and liberality.
George Washington
Many politicians are in the habit of laying it down as a self-evident

From California, to the New York Island
From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me
