Ronald Reagan Quotes
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream.

You and I have a rendezvous with destiny. We will preserve for our children this, the last best hope of man on earth, or we will sentence them to take the first step into a thousand years of darkness. If we fail, at least let our children and our children's children say of us we justified our brief moment here. We did all that could be done.
