Quotations I like:

Let us not seek the Republican answer or the Democratic answer, but the right answer. Let us not seek to fix the blame for the past. Let us accept our own responsibility for the future. – John F Kennedy

We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution. – Abraham Lincoln

If you think you can do a thing or you think you can’t do it, you are right. – Henry Ford

I do the very best I know how—the very best I can; and I mean to keep on doing so until the end. If the end brings me out right, what is said against me won’t amount to anything. If the end brings me out wrong, ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference.” – Abraham Lincoln

Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened.” – Winston Churchill

Smart people all of them. We should listen to them. Our leaders should listen. Our government is making changes in our country that will shape the future for many years. The courts are deciding how our future will look and what our freedoms will be like in the future. We are rewriting the history books. There is deep distrust and division in our nation. Now terrorists are among us. Our leaders are so fearful of offending someone that there cannot be a national conversation about the problems that confront us as a nation.

When I was a young man, the challenge to our nation was to send someone to the moon and bring them back alive. Now the challenge seems to be how to decide who can be in the bathrooms at the same time. We need to raise our focus a little.
