"Observe good faith and justice toward all nations. Cultivate peace and harmony with all." ― George Washington Topic(s): Faith More From George Washington "If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter." "True friendship is a plant of slow growth, and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity, before it is entitled to the appellation." "Let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle." More In Faith "War consisteth not in battle only, or the act of fighting; but in a tract of time, wherein the will to contend by battle is sufficiently known."― Thomas Hobbes "I want our government to encourage and protect freedom as well as our traditions of faith and family."― Jesse Helms "And in that I cannot send unto you all my businesses in writing, I despatch these present bearers fully informed in all things, to whom it may please you to give faith and credence in what they shall say unto you by word of mouth."― Owen Glendower
