Obama studies U.S. history. Did he read this?

Liberty has never come from the government. Liberty has always come from the
subjects of government. The history of liberty is the history of resistance.
The history of liberty is a history of the limitation of governmental power,
not the increase of it." -- Woodrow Wilson

Wow! I'm speechless.

There are two kinds of men who never amount to much: those who cannot do what they are told and those who can do nothing else. - Cyrus H. Curtis (1850 - 1933)

No reason (I swear!)

Contentment makes poor men rich; discontentment makes rich men poor. - Benjamin Franklin (1706 - 1790)

Easy to say, hard to do:

"Nothing gives one person so much advantage over another as to remain always
cool and unruffled under all circumstances." - Thomas Jefferson (1743 - 1826)
