Motivational Monday ~ Presidents Day!



Inspiration comes in many forms, from many people and through many situations. In honor of presidents day, we want to remind you of some of the inspiration our leaders have brought to our nation. 

"We must ever mandate the principle that the people of this continent alone have the right to decide their own destiny."
James Knox Polk, 1845-1849

"I do the very best I know how, the very best I can and I mean to keep doing so until the end."
Abraham Lincoln, 1861-1865

Liberty and Union, one and inseparable, now and forever."
Andrew Johnson, 1865-1869

"He serves his party best who serves his country best."
Rutherford B. Hayes, 1877-1881

"We want no war of conquest... War should never be entered upon until every agency of peace has failed."
William McKinley, 1897-1901

"Far and away the best prize that life offers is the chance to work hard at work worth doing" "In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing. The worst thing you can do is nothing." 
Theodore Roosevelt, 1901-1909

"I will do my best. That is all I can do. I ask for your help -- and God's."
Lyndon B. Johnson, 1963-1969

"You must never give up. You must remember that you have to take risks in order to achieve anything and sometimes you will suffer defeat. But the mark of any individual is to recover from defeat and disappointment and go on and give it his best shot."
Richard M. Nixon, 1969-1974

"Never be satisfied with less than your very best effort. If you strive for the top and miss, you'll still 'beat the pack.'"
Gerald R. Ford, 1974-1977

"I would hope that the nations of the world might say that we had built a lasting peace, built not on weapons of war but on international policies which reflect our own most precious values."
James E. Carter, Jr., 1977-1981
