Happy Independence Day!!!
Over 230 years ago our forefathers started a revolution. It was not just a revolution with men and guns but a revolution of the hearts and minds of the people of America. People do not understand today what an amazing idea these Patriots had in mind. To have laws rule the land and not kings, dictators, or tyrants in power was a very astonishing idea. And these forefathers did not seek power for themselves but fought to put the power in the hands of the people to control their own future. Here are some quotes from our Revolutionary Fathers.
Thomas Jefferson "Love your neighbor as yourself and your country more than yourself."
George Washington "Our cause is noble; it is the cause of mankind!"
James Madison "Happily for America, happily, we trust, for the whole human race, they pursued a new and more noble course. They accomplished a revolution which has no parallel in the annals of human society."
Thomas Paine "We have it in our power to begin the world over again."
John Adams "Objects of the most stupendous magnitude, and measure in which the lives and liberties of millions yet unborn are intimately interested, are now before us. We are in the very midst of a revolution the most complete, unexpected and remarkable of any in the history of nations."
John Adams "Objects of the most stupendous magnitude, and measure in which the lives and liberties of millions yet unborn are intimately interested, are now before us. We are in the very midst of a revolution the most complete, unexpected and remarkable of any in the history of nations."
God bless America
