You must not compromise your principles, but you must not humiliate the opposition.

A people that values its privileges above its principles soon loses both.

Never compromise on your values and principles, even if it's the hard way.

We are particularly thankful to you for your part in the movement to have the words under God added to our Pledge of Allegiance. These words will remind Americans that despite our great physical strength we must remain humble. They will help us keep constantly in our minds and hearts the spiritual and moral principles which alone give dignity to man.

Great ambition is the passion of a great character. Those endowed with it may perform very good or bad acts. All depends on the principles which direct them.

Hold faithfulness and sincerity as first principles.
