Nation Quotes

Christmas is forced upon a reluctant and disgusted nation by the shopkeepers and the press; on its own merits it would wither and shrivel in the fiery breath of universal hatred Picture Quote #1

Two opposing gospels are fighting one another for the soul of our nation and, increasingly, the world: the gospel of consumption and the gospel of peace Picture Quote #1

We must surely appear to the world as exactly what we are: a nation that organizes its economy around consuming twice as much oil as it produces, and around the profligate wastefulness of the wars and campaigns required to defend such consumption. In recent years we have defined our national interest largely in terms of the oil fields and pipelines we need to procure fuel Picture Quote #1

This intolerable dependence on foreign oil threatens our economic independence and the very security of our nation. The energy crisis is real. It is worldwide. It is a clear and present danger to our nation. These are facts and we simply must face them Picture Quote #1

You have to remember, we may be the only nation, the only one I know of, that uses test scores not to assess kids, but to assess teachers. I think we’re unique in doing that Picture Quote #1

The art of sculpture is long ago perished to any real effect... it is the game of a rude and youthful people, and not the manly labour of a wise and spiritual nation Picture Quote #1

The glory of the nation rests in the character of her men. And character comes from boyhood. Thus every boy is a challenge to his elders Picture Quote #1

The mind supplies the idea of a nation, but what gives this idea its sentimental force is a community of dreams Picture Quote #1

The nation that buys commands, the nation that sells serves; it is necessary to balance trade in order to ensure freedom; the country that wants to die sells only to one country, and the country that wants to survive sells to more than one Picture Quote #1

Study the lives of our great women, who were models of patience, fortitude, compassion and sacrifice. I desire that you should take up the reins of leadership and bring peace and prosperity to the nation by leading ideal lives Picture Quote #1

Only a handful of men and women leave an imprint on the conscience of a nation and on the history that they helped shape Picture Quote #1

Culture arises only when the individual fulfills his cycle of obligations. If everyone recognizes and fulfills his cycle of obligations, genuineness emerges. The culture of a whole nation can in the final analysis be built upon nothing else Picture Quote #1

Praise the green earth. Chance has appointed her home, workshop, larder, middenpit. Her lousy skin scabbed here and there by cities provides us with name and nation Picture Quote #1

Many communities throughout the nation still do not have the communications infrastructure in place for first responders to communicate with one another during an emergency Picture Quote #1

Culture is a window reflecting the history, culture and spiritual world of a nation,.. Cultural exchange is a bridge to enhance the mutual understanding and friendship between the people of different nations Picture Quote #1

During a national crisis, we as a nation become a single community and no one should take advantage of a crisis Picture Quote #1

Each child represents either a potential addition to the protective capacity and enlightened citizenship of the nation or, if allowed to suffer from neglect, a potential addition to the destructive forces of a community.... The interests of the nation are involved in the welfare of this array of children no less than in our great material affairs Picture Quote #1

The object of government is the welfare of the people. The material progress and prosperity of a nation are desirable chiefly so far as they lead to the moral and material welfare of all good citizens Picture Quote #1

We are not engaged in domestic politics, in church building or in social uplift work, but we are engaged in nation building Picture Quote #1

The whole world is run on bluff. No race, no nation, no man has any divine right to take advantage of others. Why allow the other fellow to bluff you? Picture Quote #1

To exist as a nation, to prosper as a state, and to live as a people, we must have trees Picture Quote #1

It is not what we have that will make us a great nation; it is the way in which we use it Picture Quote #1

We of an older generation can get along with what we have, though with growing hardship; but in your full manhood and womanhood you will want what nature once so bountifully supplied and man so thoughtlessly destroyed; and because of that want you will reproach us, not for what we have used, but for what we have wasted...So any nation which in its youth lives only for the day, reaps without sowing, and consumes without husbanding, must expect the penalty of the prodigal whose labor could with difficulty find him the bare means of life Picture Quote #1

The democratic process on which this nation was founded should not be restricted to the political process, but should be applied to the industrial operation as well Picture Quote #1

It is by no means necessary that a great nation should always stand at the heroic level. But no nation has the root of greatness in it unless in time of need it can rise to the heroic mood Picture Quote #1

Conservation is a great moral issue, for it involves the patriotic duty of insuring the safety and continuance of the nation Picture Quote #1

Conscription is the vitality of a nation, the purification of its morality, and the real foundations of all its habits Picture Quote #1

The measure of the wealth of a nation is indicated by the measure of its protection of its industry; the measure of the poverty of a nation is marked by the degree in which it neglects and abandons the care of its own industry, leaving it exposed to the action of foreign powers Picture Quote #1

History teaches us no race, no people, no nation has ever been freed through cowardice, through cringing, through bowing and scraping, but all that has been achieved to the glory of mankind, to the glory and honour of races and nations was through the manly determination and effort of those who lead and those who are led Picture Quote #1

Children are like buds in a garden and should be carefully and lovingly nurtured, as they are the future of the nation and the citizens of tomorrow Picture Quote #1
