“Just what is it that America stands for? If she stands for one thing more than another, it is for the sovereignty of self-governing people, and her example, her assistance, her encouragement, has thrilled two continents in this western world with all those fine impulses which have built up human liberty on sides of the water. She stands, therefore, as an example of independence, as an example of free institutions, and as an example of disinterested international action in the main tenets of justice.” PeopleIfsWorldHumansTwoSelfActionAmericaSidesWaterJusticeLibertyOne ThingExampleFineBuiltEncouragementIndependenceInstitutionsWesternInternationalImpulseContinentsAssistanceSovereigntyGoverningWestern WorldDisinterested Author:Woodrow Wilson

That's the kind of America that I'm a fan of.” LooksKindIdeasReasonActionAmericaWalksResponsibilityPowerPiecesFansCallingMoonHighestEncouragementHardestHeyReason WhyBaggageAnything Is Possible Author:Edward de Bono
