“ The mission of the United States is one of benevolent assimilation. ”
The more profoundly we study this wonderful book [the Bible], and the more closely we observe its divine precept, the better citizens we will become and the higher will be our destiny as a nation.
~ William Mckinley
That's all a man can hope for during his lifetime - to set an example - and when he is dead, to be an inspiration for history.
Let us ever remember that our interest is in concord, not in conflict; and that our real eminence rests in the victories of peace, not those of war.
War should never be entered upon until every agency of peace has failed.
