Inaugural Quotables

"We cannot carry the message of freedom and the baggage of bigotry at the same time." "You have seen duty and allegiance in the determined faces of our soldiers. You have seen that life is fragile, and evil is real, and courage triumphs. Make the choice to serve in a cause larger than your wants, larger than yourself — and in your days you will add not just to the wealth of our country, but to its character." "We felt the unity and fellowship of our nation when freedom came under attack, and our response came like a single hand over a single heart. And we can feel that same unity and pride whenever America acts for good, and the victims of disaster are given hope, and the unjust encounter justice, and the captives are set free." "In a world moving toward liberty, we are determined to show the meaning and promise of liberty. No one is fit to be a master and no one deserves to be a slave." "The United States will not ignore your oppression, or excuse your oppressors. When you stand for your liberty, we will stand with you." "America, in this young century, proclaims liberty throughout all the world, and to all the inhabitants thereof. Renewed in our strength, tested but not weary, we are ready for the greatest achievements in the history of freedom." Watch the President's Inaugural Address.
