"There are two good things in life - freedom of thought and freedom of action"

"Nothing has been purchased more dearly than the little bit of reason and sense of freedom which now constitutes our pride"

"A free America... means just this: individual freedom for all, rich or poor, or else this system of government we call democracy is only an expedient to enslave man to the machine and make him like it"

"Prayer is not an old woman's idle amusement. Properly understood and applied, it is the most potent instrument of action"

"As sure as the spring will follow the winter, prosperity and economic growth will follow recession"

"Freedom is not something that can be given, it is something that must be fought for"

"I sang at the Inaugural prayer service at the National Cathedral"

"In health there is freedom. Health is the first of all liberties"
