I Pledge Allegiance To The flag
Of The United States Of America
And To The Republic
For Which It Stands,
One Nation Under God,
Indivisible, With Liberty
And Justice For All.
I am the woven cloth sewn by hand, that you may cherish me with honor and respect as i wave atop a pole or rest upon a departed soul. ~kimfucious
I swing before your eyes as a bright
gleam of color, a symbol of yourself,
the pictured suggestion of that big
thing which makes this nation. My stars and my stripes are your dream and your labors. They are bright with cheer, brilliant with courage, firm with faith, because you have made them so out of your heart. For you are the makers of the flag and it is well that you glory in the making.
~Franklin Knight Lane
A thoughtful mind, when it sees a nation's flag, sees not the flag only, but the nation itself; and whatever may be its symbols, its insignia, he reads chiefly in the flag the government, the principles, the truths, the history which belongs to the nation that sets it forth. ~Henry Ward Beecher
Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all. ~Dale Carnegie
A man's feet must be planted in his country, but his eyes should survey the world. ~George Santayana
Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall. ~Confucius
