Quotes - April, 1994 Issue 


"It is substantially true that virtue or morality is a necessary spring of popular government." 
- George Washington's Farewell Address  
The fundamental theory of liberty upon which governments in this Union repose excludes any general power of the State to standardize its children by forcing them to accept instruction from public teachers only. The child is not the mere creature of the state; those who nurture him and direct his destiny have the right, coupled with the high duty, to recognize and prepare him for additional obligations. 
- James Clark McReynolds, in a Supreme Court decision, Pierce v. Society of the Sisters, 1925 
What the vast majority of American children need is to stop being pampered, stop being indulged, stop being chauffeured, stop being catered to. In the final analysis it is not what you do for your children but what you have taught them to do for themselves that will make them successful human beings. 
- Ann Landers, Ann Landers Says Truth Is Stranger..., 1968. 
If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be. 
-Thomas Jefferson, in a letter to Charles Yancey, Jan. 6, 1816.
