Quotes from famous Americans

in the common people.
Walt Whitman (1819 - 1892)

but we can build youth for the future.

In which you really stop to look fear in the face…
You must do the thing you think you cannot do.

That peace, safety, and concord may be the portion of our
native land, and be long enjoyed
by our fellow citizens, is the most ardent wish of my heart, and if I
can be instrumental in
procuring or preserving them,
I shall think I have not lived in vain.
letter to Benjamin Waring and others, March 23, 1801

of the people who
don't do anything about it.
