Day 43: Family Picture (7/4)


Happy 4th of July!!

The 4th of July: America’s Independence Day is normally filled with the 3 F’s – food, friends (and/or family) and fireworks.

It’s also a great day for remembering those who came before us, those we live with and those who will come after us.

Here are some great quotes about freedom and liberty to remember those who came before us:

“The greatest enemy of individual freedom is the individual himself.” ~ Saul Alinsky

“Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves.” ~ Abraham Lincoln

“Liberty is the breath of life to nations.” ~ Bernard Shaw

“Nothing is more difficult, and therefore more precious, than to be able to decide.” ~ Napoleon Bonaparte

“Where liberty dwells, there is my country.” ~ Benjamin Franklin

“We stand for freedom. That is our conviction for ourselves; that is our only commitment to others.” ~ John F Kennedy

“Freedom is the oxygen of the soul” ~ Moshe Dayan

“All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.” ~Winston Churchill

“Better to starve free than be a fat slave.” ~ Aesop

“Freedom is never dear at any price. It is the breath of life. What would a man not pay for living?” ~ Gandhi

“Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.” ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.
