| Happy Independence Day America |
| 07.04.04 (2:55 am) [edit] |
I thought, as i reflect about our friends, family, and country on this holiday, and my day off, that I would blog some quotes that have gotten to me...
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 which belongs to the Nation that sets it forth.
--Henry Ward Beecher
Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women; when it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it.
--Judge Learned Hand
[b]DON'T LET LIBERTY DIE[/b]
On our Nation's Holiday, between all the beer drinking, bbqing, fireworks and fun, take some time to think about this country and all the people that are doing something to keep it your country, to keep you safe, to keep a future for our children. Enjoy!

Hey kid,
You are so right. We all have to take time to remember what we have, why we have it, and who we are.
Look forward to talking to you today.
Love, DAD
