"Diffidence in an officer is a good..." - Quote by George Washington

“Nothing short of self-respect and that justice which is essential to a national character ought to involve us in war.”

“The eyes of all our countrymen are now upon us, and we shall have their blessings and praises, if happily we are the instruments of saving them from the tyranny meditated against them.”

“I am principled against selling negroes, as you would do cattle at a market.”

“You add value to people when you value them.”

“A community is like the ones who govern it.”

“The wise man puts himself last and finds himself first.”

“Those who can't take directions graciously have no business giving them”

“There are two kinds of actors -- one sits in a dressing room waiting for his call and the other gets out into the business and polishes his craft by absorbing everything. I don't know enough, I'll never learn everything I need to learn. When a guy thinks he's already learned it, he can only go backwards.”

“Humility is not disgraceful, and carries no loss of true pride.”
