“We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things.”

“Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forebears, and true to our founding documents.”

” Our power grows through its prudent use; our security emanates from the justness of our cause, the force of our example, the tempering qualities of humility and restraint.”

“With hope and virtue, let us brave once more the icy currents, and endure what storms may come.”

“As for our common defense, we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals.”
