Random thoughts on freedom, country living and....
"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
"All great things are simple, and many can be expressed in single words: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope."
- Sir Winston Churchill
"Personal responsibility is the cornerstone of freedom."
"Over the years, I have come to understand a critical difference between the world of fear and the world of freedom. In the former, the primary challenge is finding the inner strength to confront evil. In the latter, the primary challenge is finding the moral clarity to see evil."
