A Fourth of July Tribute to our American Patriots and Floundering Fathers

My apologies, but it had to be done… feel free to add some of your own favorite portraits and quotes… ; )

George Washington

“Worst in War… Worst in Peace… and Worst in the hearts of his countrymen”

“I cannot not tell a lie…”

Benjamin Franklin

“A snitch and slime saves time…”

“Surly to bed, surly to rise, makes a man stealthy, and stick to his lies…”

Patrick Henry

“Give them liberty or kill them all…”

Nathan Hale

“I regret that I have but given 2535 lives for their country…”

Benedict Arnold

“Having … become a cripple in the service of Connecticut, I little expected to meet (such) ungrateful returns,”

Thomas Jefferson

“A coward is much more disposed to quarrel with a man of spirit. “

“A democracy is nothing more than a gerrymander, where thirty-five percent of the people conspire to take away the rights of the other sixty-five.”
