WELL KNOWN QUOTES FROM FAMOUS SPEECHES

And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country. John F. Kennedy Inaugural Address 20 January 1961

Yesterday, December 7, a date which will live in infamy - the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan. With confidence in our armed forces, with the unbounding determination of our people, we will gain the inevitable triumph -- so help us God. Franklin Delano Roosevelt Pearl Harbor Address to the Nation delivered 8 December 1941

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death! Patrick Henry - March 23, 1775

Abraham Lincoln: Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Gettysburg Address A house divided against itself cannot stand. Republican State convention

I say to the House as I said to ministers who have joined this government, I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears, and sweat. We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many months of struggle and suffering. Winston Churchill May 13, 1940 Call to arms for Britain on the eve of WWII

Nelson Mandela: During my lifetime I have dedicated myself to this struggle of the African people. I have fought against white domination, and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and with equal opportunities. It is an ideal which I hope to live for and to achieve. But if needs be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die. April 20, 1964 defending himself against charges of treason for violating South Africa's seperationalist policy

Our war on terror begins with al-Qaida, but it does not end there. It will not end until every terrorist group of global reach has been found, stopped and defeated. George Bush State of the Union Speech 9/20/2001

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself. ~ Franklin Delano Roosevelt, First Inaugural Address We may not be able to prepare the future for our children, but we can at least prepare our children for the future. ― Franklin D. Roosevelt Franklin D. Roosevelt

“ Uncle Sam ’ s hands are dripping with blood, dripping with the blood of the black man in this country…Let the world know how bloody his hands are. Let the world know the hypocrisy that ’ s practiced over here. Let it be the ballot or the bullet. Let him know that it must be the ballot or the bullet. ” April, 1964

Lyndon Baines Johnson, Voting Rights Act Address, March 15, 1965 There is no Negro problem. There is no Southern problem. There is no Northern problem. There is only an American problem. And we are met here tonight as Americans--not as Democrats, or Republicans. We are met here as Americans to solve that problem.

…a spirit of harmony will survive in America only if each of us remembers that we share a common destiny. ~Barbara Jordan, U.S. Congressperson, keynote address to the Democratic National Convention, July 12, 1976.)

An individual has not started living until he can rise above the confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity.
