"Rest assured, my fellow citizens, the nation you are a part of, this
young experiment in democracy called America started just over
two centuries ago, will forever remain the 'land of the free and home
of the brave' so long as we never run out of tough young Americans
willing to look beyond their own self interest and comfortable lives,

and go into the darkest and most dangerous places on earth
to hunt down, and kill, those who would do us harm."

"Semper Fidelis"

Marine Major General John F. Kelly (17 February 2012)

"If you think this war against our way of life is over because some of the self-appointed opinion-makers and chattering class grow ‘war weary,’ because they want to be out of Iraq or Afghanistan, you are mistaken. This enemy is dedicated to our destruction. He will fight us for generations, and the conflict will move through various phases as it has since 9/11."

"When future generations ask why America is still free and the
heyday of Al Qaeda and their terrorist allies was counted in days
rather than in centuries as the extremists themselves predicted,
our hometown heroes-soldiers, sailors, airmen, Coast Guardsmen,
and Marines-can say,

because of me and people like me who risked all to protect millions
who will never know my name."

"Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect
everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will
preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force,
you are inevitably ruined.."

"Let Americans disdain to be the instruments of European greatness!

Let the thirteen States, bound together in a strict and indissoluble Union, concur in erecting one great American system,

superior to the control of all transatlantic force or influence,

and able to dictate the terms of the connection between the old and the new world!"

for among old parchments or musty records.

They are written, as with a sunbeam, in the whole
volume of human nature, by the hand of the divinity itself;
