A fresh new world; and in Thy sweet chains caught,
And made us free!❞
— Maurice Francis Egan

❝You may think this is a little mystical, and I’ve said it many times before, but I believe there was a Divine Plan to place this great continent here between the two oceans to be found by peoples from every corner of the earth.

— Ronald Reagan
❝There can be no triumph without loss. No victory without suffering. No freedom without sacrifice❞
