"For we must consider that we shall be as a city upon a hill. The eyes of all people are upon us. So that if we shall deal falsely with our God in this work we have undertaken and so cause Him to withdraw His present help from us, we shall be made a story and a by-word throughout the world. We shall open the mouths of enemies to speak evil of the ways of God... We shall shame the faces of many of God's worthy servants, and cause their prayers to be turned into curses upon us till we be consumed out of the good land whither we are going."   —  John Winthrop

A thoughtful mind, when it sees a Nation's flag, sees not the flag only, but the Nation itself; and whatever may be its symbols, its insignia, he reads chiefly in the flag the Government, the principles, the truths, the history which belongs to the Nation which belongs to the Nation that sets it forth. -- Henry Ward Beecher

I am exceedingly anxious that this Union, the Constitution , and the liberties of the people shall be perpetuated in accordance with the original idea for which that struggle was made, and I shall be most happy indeed if I shall be an humble instrument in the hands of the Almighty, and of this, His almost chosen people, for perpetuating the object of that great struggle. -- Abraham Lincoln

The Patriot Post
Founders' Quote Daily

"With hearts fortified with these animating reflections, we most
solemnly, before God and the world, declare, that, exerting the
utmost energy of those powers, which our beneficent Creator hath
graciously bestowed upon us, the arms we have compelled by our
enemies to assume, we will, in defiance of every hazard, with
unabating firmness and perseverance employ for the preservation
of our liberties; being with one mind resolved to die freemen
rather than to live as slaves."

-- John Dickinson and Thomas Jefferson (Declaration of the Cause
and Necessity of Taking up Arms, 6 July 1775)

From The Federalist Patriot:

Off the charts: "The entire country may disagree with me, but I don't understand the necessity for patriotism. Why do you have to be a patriot? About what? This land is our land? Why? You can like where you live and like your life, but as for loving the whole country... I don't see why people care about patriotism." —Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks

(My Note:  DUH!        )

"I think that most Christians would be better pleased if the Lord did not inquire into their personal affairs too closely. They want Him to save them, to keep them happy, and to take them off to heaven at last, but not to be too inquisitive about their conduct or services." — A. W. Tozer

Without true Patriots this nation would not be a place to live nor like your life. To many of these people do not understand what it takes to have the freedoms that they so enjoy. I guess that old saying "you don't know what you have until it's gone" really applies in this situation.

Unfortunately when that time comes the majority of these people will say "Somebody should do something about this" all the while they just sit there and cry about the situation.

Jefferson in 1787 wrote: "Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect
