"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to (have their citizens suffer and) repeat it."
George Santayana
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream.
It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same,
or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children
and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."
President Ronald Reagan
"I kissed a terrorist. And I liked it."
It is simply amazing that the Cole did not sink with such a huge hole ripped into her below the waterline.
