John Quincy Adams QuotesIf your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader."May our country be always successful, but whether successful or otherwise, always right." All men profess honesty as long as they can. To believe all men honest would be folly. To believe none so is something worse. Patience and perseverance have a magical affect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish. America does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy. America does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to freedom and independence of all. She is the champion and vindicator only of her own. Old minds are like old horses; you must exercise them if you wish to keep them in working order. Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone, and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost. “Idleness is sweet, and its consequences are cruel” |
