Where life is more terrible than death, it is then the truest form of valor to dare to live.
- Thomas Browne

To see what is right and not to do it, is want of courage.
- Confucius

I have learned that to get a job done and have fun in it is about all you can get out of life.
- Jessie Tarbox Beals

Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does NOT mean to stand by the President or any other public official save exactly to the degree in which he himself stands by the country. It is patriotic to support him insofar as he efficiently serves the country. It is unpatriotic not to oppose him to the exact extent that by inefficiency or otherwise he fails in his duty to stand by the country.
- Teddy Roosevelt

I believe there are more instances of the abridgment of the rights of the people by the gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations.
-James Madison,

thanks guys, these are all great quotes. I can't fit the longer ones in because we are restricted to a maximum of 48 characters (including spaces and punctuation).

I think I have to recount my character limit - 48 characters is too small! Anyways thanks for the ones already posted, but if you have more please share (especially the shorter ones!)

Thanks
Mike
