I've long believed that one of the mainsprings of our own liberty has been the widespread ownership of property among our people and the expectation that anyone's child, even from the humblest of families, could grow up to own a business or a corporation. Thomas Jefferson dreamed of a land of small farmers, of shopowners, and merchants. Abraham Lincoln signed into law the Homestead Act that ensured that the great western prairies of America would be the realm of independent, propertyowning citizens-a mightier guarantee of freedom is difficult to imagine.

There is nothing wrong with America that Americans can't fix.

The time has come to match outgo to income, instead of always doing it the other way around.

We can't have it both ways. We can't expect God to protect us in a crisis and just leave Him over there on the shelf in our day-to-day living. I wonder if sometimes He isn't waiting for us to wake up, He isn't maybe running out of patience.

Don't be afraid to see what you see.

Our moral imperative is to work with all our powers for that day when the children of the world grow up without the fear of nuclear war.

Wearing love beads and touting our sincerity will not make this a safer world.
