Independence Quotes and Poems
You have to love a nation that celebrates its Independence every July 4, not with a parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who file by the White House in a show of strength and muscle, but with family picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die from happiness. You may think you have overeaten, but it is patriotism. Erma Bombeck

**

**
Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and success of liberty. John F. Kennedy
**
Liberty with danger is better than peace with slavery.

I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free. And I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to me. Lee Greenwood
**
O beautiful for spacious skies For amber waves of grain, For purple mountains majesty Above thy fruited plain!
America! America! God shed his grace on thee And crown thy good with brotherhood From sea to shining sea!
O beautiful for pilgrim feet, Whose stern, impassioned stress A thoroughfare for freedom beat Across the wilderness!
America! America! God mend thine every flaw, Thy Liberty in law!
O beautiful for heroes proved In liberating strife, Who more than self their country loved, And mercy more than life!
America! America! May God thy gold refine Till all success be nobleness And every gain divine!
O beautiful for patriot dream That sees beyond the years Thine alabaster cities gleam Undimmed by human tears!
America! America! God shed his grace on thee And crown thy good with brotherhood From sea to shining sea!
Katherine Lee Bates

Freedom's natal day is here. Fire the guns and shout for freedom, See the flag above unfurled! Hail the stars and stripes forever, Dearest flag in all the world. Florence A. Jones
