Great American Quotes Weekly… But Far From Weak……

Great American quotes … I have loved great quotes including quotes of our founding fathers, presidential quotes, and other patriotic quotes for most of my adult life. They just seemed to be filled with wisdom and often so profound. All generations alive today could greatly benefit from studying and meditating on the patriotic quotes of great Americans. Yet there were others, whom we will also quote, though not Americans at all, who bore within them the same innate sense that morality and goodness were always right and could carry nations to greatness. But, they also realized that the lack of things like righteousness through faith in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ would amount to not only eternal damnation of the souls of men, but also the ruin of nations who fail to recognize and put these principles into practice. Yes the spirit of all truly great American quotes and other patriotic quotes from past citizens of our world reflect that they had the good sense to (at the very least) acknowledge God and realize that His blessings upon men and nations are not imaginary. The founding fathers quotes from the documents, personal letters, and often verbally spoken then recorded for public record are perhaps the greatest indicators that this great nation of America was indeed founded as “one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.” I have said all of that to say this; Please bookmark this page and come back each week as we feature great American quotes including quotes of our founding fathers, presidential quotes, and patriotic quotes from around the world.

Great American Quotes for the week of December 14, 2004:

(1) Patrick Henry (1736 – 1799), was an American Revolutionary leader and orator who spoke the now famous phrase, “Give me liberty or give me death!”

Patrick Henry boldly declared the following, which is one of my personal favorite great quotes:

“It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religions, but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. For this very reason peoples of other faiths have been afforded asylum, prosperity, and freedom of worship here.”

(2) John Adams (1735 – 1826), was the second president of the United States and the first one to live in the White House. On June 21, 1776, John Adams wrote:

“Statesmen, my dear Sir, may plan and speculate for liberty, but it is Religion and Morality alone, which can establish the Principles upon which Freedom can securely stand. The only foundation of a free Constitution is pure Virtue, and if this cannot be inspired into our People in a greater Measure, than they have it now, they may change their Rulers and the forms of Government, but they will not obtain a lasting liberty.”
