All glory is fleeting.

I pledge you, I pledge myself to a new deal for the American people.
- Franklin D. Roosevelt (32nd President of the United States)
Be Prepared.
- Robert Baden-Powell (founder of Scouting)
Speak softly and carry a big stick.
- Theodore Roosevelt (26th President of the United States)
All glory is fleeting.
- General George S. Patton, Jr
The Interstate [Highway] System must be given top priority in construction planning.
- Dwight D. Eisenhower (34th President of the United States) February 22, 1955
We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. We must remember always that accusation is not proof and that conviction depends upon evidence and due process of law. We will not walk in fear, one of another. We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason, if we dig deep in our history and our doctrine, and remember that we are not descended from fearful men.
- Edward R. Murrow (broadcast journalist who played a decisive role in ending the specter of McCarthyism - the greatest internal threat ever to the freedom of the American people)
