Favorite Quote:

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same."
- Ronald Reagan

"It is, perhaps, needless to say that when I emerged from the seething turmoil and trickery of the convention, my views of public men and their motives had undergone a change. I then for the first time realized the truth what I had been taught by the Greek historian, that under the instigation of selfishness and the contentions of rivalry, men identify what is advantageous with what is honorable and what is expedient with what is just, and while simulating sentiments of friendship, maintain an attitude of perfidious antagonism, that the love of power, originating in avarice and ambition and the party spirit which is engendered by them when men are fairly embarked in a contest, render the tie of party stronger than the tie of patriotism or of religion, the seal of good faith being not love of country, or the divine law, but fellowship in schemes of spoliation, and self-aggrandizement."
-Oliver Dyer
