Americanism means the virtues of courage, honor, justice, truth, sincerity, and hardihoodthe virtues that made America.

There must be what Mr. Gladstone many years ago called a blessed act of oblivion. We must all turn our backs upon the horrors of the past. We must look to the future.

Albert Camus

The life of the wealthy is one long Sunday.

Georg Buchner

Drop the last year into the silent limbo of the past. Let it go, for it was imperfect, and thank God that it can go.
