POPSFamous Quotes "Since the general civilization of mankind, I believe there are more instances of the abridgment of freedoms of the people by gradual and silent encroachment of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations." ~James Madison "Yes, we did produce a near perfect Republic. But will they keep it, or will they, in the enjoyment of plenty, lose the memory of freedom? Material abundance without character is the surest way to destruction." ~Thomas Jefferson "The nobility of the soldier willing to give a life for country and God lies silent and still amidst the broken promises of leaders. Send them not to futile sacrifice on shores so far from home. But keep your word to all that serve that none shall die in vain." ~ R Raitano, fellow medic, Vietnam era "A good end cannot sanctify evil means; nor must we ever do evil that good may come from it." ~Wm. Penn
