Ideals Are Like The Stars: We Never

Ideas Are Like Stars; You Will Not Succeed In Touching Them With Your Hands. But Like The Seafaring Man In The Desert Of Waters, You Choose Them As Your Guides, And Following Them You Will Reach You Destiny. Perhaps You Could Get A Clearer Idea Of Our Destiny If We Took Time Out To Examine Our Ideas, And Upgraded Them If Necessary. What Things Are Most Important To You? If You Could Do Anything You Wanted To Be, What Would You Be? If You Could Achieve A Single Objective In Life, What Would It Be?

When The Life Of The Nation Was Attempted, When The Cause Of Liberty And Human Rights Called For Their Aid, They Rushed Forth To Rally Under The Banner They Loved, With Grand Singleness Of Purpose And Heroic Devotion--leaving All Behind Them, To Meet Toil And Danger, Hunger, Sickness, Wounds, And Death, For Nothing But The Sublime Satisfaction Of Doing Their Duty To Their Country And To Mankind.

Our Country ... When Right, To Be Kept Right. When Wrong, To Be Put Right.

We Have Come To A Point Where It Is Loyalty To Resist, And Treason To Submit.

Our Ideals Resemble The Stars, Which Illumintate The Night. No One Will Ever Be Able To Touch Them. But The Men Who, Like The Sailors On The Ocean, Take Them For Guides, Will Undoubtedly Reach Their Goal.
