“I’m convinced that today the majority of Americans want what those first Americans wanted: A better life for themselves and their children; a minimum of government authority. Very simply, they want to be left alone in peace and safety to take care of the family by earning an honest dollar and putting away some savings. This may not sound too exciting, but there is something magnificent about it. On the farm, on the street corner, in the factory and in the kitchen, millions of us ask nothing more, but certainly nothing less than to live our own lives according to our values — at peace with ourselves, our neighbors and the world.”
Ronald Reagan – “… the majority of Americans want what those first Americans wanted…”
Ronald Reagan – “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it …”
“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it on 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.”
“America will never be destroyed from the outside…”
For I am dying
For I am dying
Oh, if only I could return to the way that I was
where I was born from tyranny
I was created from one faith
and for the freedom of that faith
Now I am tired,
I have forgotten from where I have come
Nay, I seem to not even care from where I have come
But only if I could return to the days from afar
where freedom was true and faith was in the “I Am”
I remember the days when food was plenty, people were strong, and we walked with the Creator
Who gave us all things and wrapped us in His protection
But I have grown to not need the Creator
because I have decided I am better
For truth is no longer important and I have no need for faith,
I have no need for freedom
I have sold it all for gold and power and desire
I just want what I want as I die a slow death
I was once a Great, as proud as the eagle
I have sold it for the now, and tomorrow is no more
Should I get your pity if I cry out,
You that I have mocked?
But I have forgotten to Whom I should call
Perhaps I’ll just lie down and sleep and wait for nothing
My time may be done
since I gave it all up
