SAYING ABOUT
GEORGE
WASHINGTON

 ABRAHAM
LINCOLN |
|
"Washington
is
the
mightiest
name
on
earth
--
long
since
mightiest
in
the
cause
of
civil
liberty;
still
mightiest
in
moral
reformation…
To
add
brightness
to
the
sun,
or
glory
to
the
name
of
Washington,
is
alike
impossible.
Let
none
attempt
it.
In
solemn
awe
pronounce
the
name,
and
in
its
naked
deathless
splendor,
leave
it
shining
on." |

|
 BENJAMIN
FRANKLIN |
|
"One
of
the
greatest
captains
of
the
age."

 HILLARY

George
Washington,
our
commander-in-chief
before
he
was
our
President,
laid
down
the
indelible
marker
of
our
nation’s
values
even
as
we
were
struggling
as a
nation
|

“First
in
war,
first
in
peace,
and
first
in
the
hearts
of
his
countrymen" |

George
Washington
was
right
in
1789
and
he’s
right
today.
|
|
|
|
 Winston
Churchill |
|
“He
was
the
Father
of
his
Nation.
Almost
alone
his
staunchness
in
the
War
of
Independence
held
the
American
colonies
to
their
united
purpose.
His
services
after
victory
had
been
won
were
no
less
great.
His
firmness
and
example
while
first
President
restrained
the
violence
of
faction
and
postponed
a
national
schism
for
sixty
years.
His
character
and
influence
steadied
the
dangerous
leanings
of
Americans
to
take
sides
against Britain or France. He filled his office with
dignity
and
inspired
his
administration
with
much
of
his
own
wisdom." |
|
|
|
 JOHN
ADAMS |
|
“His
example
is
now
complete,
and
it
will
teach
wisdom
and
virtue
to
magistrates,
citizens,
and
men,
not
only
in
the
present
age,
but
in
future
generations,
as
long
as
our
history
shall
be
read.”
