Once we roared like lions for liberty; now we bleat like sheep for security! The solution for America's problem is not in terms of big government, but it is in big men over whom nobody stands in control but God.

Once we roared like lions for liberty; now we bleat like she

Summary

This quote suggests that people have become complacent and willing to sacrifice their freedom for a false sense of security. It argues that the solution to America's issues lies not in relying on a powerful government but in placing trust in strong individuals who answer only to a higher power, namely God. This statement implies that the key to overcoming problems is by embracing personal responsibility and leadership rather than depending solely on a governing system.
