Ronald Reagan

“ It was once written that America is great because it is good, and if America ever ceases to be good, America will cease to be great. So long as Americans remain faithful-in deeds as well as thought-to the ideals embodied in our Constitution and furthered in our free institutions, our Nation's greatness will flourish.
Americans have fought, and many have died, to preserve the blessings of liberty in this fair land. Each of us has the opportunity to honor these sacrifices and to renew our commitment to American ideals as we go about our daily lives. ”

“ We must never take our precious freedoms for granted. Rather, from time to time we must rededicate ourselves to the magnificent ideals of our great democracy-liberty, justice, and dignity for all mankind. ”

“ When we participate in a free election, extend a helping hand to a neighbor, live responsible and productive lives, or teach a child through our own actions that all people are equal under the law, we manifest our allegiance to this great country. ”
