Oh, Paddy, dear, an' did ye hear the news that's goin' round? The shamrock is forbid by law to grow on Irish ground! No more St. Patrick's Day we'll keep, his colour can't be seen, For there's a cruel law agin' the Wearin' o' the green.
patriot day quotes by WILLIAM J. CLINTON-1437639726
The real differences around the world today are not between Jews and Arabs; Protestants and Catholics; Muslims, Croats, and Serbs. The real differences are between those who embrace peace and those who would destroy it; between those who look to the future and those who cling to the past; between those who open their arms and those who are determined to clench their fists.

mom day quotes by FRAN LEBOWITZ-1437628367
Your responsibility as a parent is not as great as you might imagine. You need not supply the world with the next conqueror of disease or major motion-picture star.

Their silent wounds have speechMore eloquent than men;Their tones can deeper reachThan human voice or pen.
memorial day quotes by ROBERT G. INGERSOLL-1437415774
These heroes are dead. They died for liberty - they died for us. They are at rest. They sleep in the land they made free, under the flag they rendered stainless, under the solemn pines, the sad hemlocks, the tearful willows, and the embracing vines. They sleep beneath the shadows of the clouds, careless alike of sunshine or of storm, each in the windowless Place of Rest. Earth may run red with other wars - they are at peace. In the midst of battle, in the roar of conflict, they found the serenity of death. I have one sentiment for soldiers living and dead: cheers for the living; tears for the dead.
memorial day quotes by JOHN H. JEWETT-1437414543
Our battle-fields, safe in the keepingOf Nature's kind, fostering care,Are blooming, - our heroes are sleeping, -And peace broods perennial there.
memorial day quotes by LUCY LARCOM-1437413262
Life hangs as nothing in the scale against dear Liberty!
memorial day quotes by WILL CARLETON-1437411851
Cover them over with beautiful flowers, Deck them with garlands, those brothers of ours, Lying so silent by night and by day Sleeping the years of their manhood away. Give them the meed they have won in the past; Give them the honors their future forcast; Give them the chaplets they won in the strife; Give them the laurels they lost with their life.
memorial day quotes by BENJAMIN HARRISON-1437387519
I have never been able to think of the day as one of mourning; I have never quite been able to feel that half-masted flags were appropriate on Decoration Day. I have rather felt that the flag should be at the peak, because those whose dying we commemorate rejoiced in seeing it where their valor placed it. We honor them in a joyous, thankful, triumphant commemoration of what they did.
memorial day quotes by WALLACE BRUCE-1437371575
Who kept the faith and fought the fight;The glory theirs, the duty ours.
memorial day quotes by JOSEPH CAMPBELL-1437370034
A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself.
memorial day quotes by WILFRED WILSON GIBSON-1437368744
We who are left how shall we look againHappily on the sun or feel the rainWithout remembering how they who wentUngrudgingly and spentTheir lives for us loved, too, the sun and rain?
memorial day quotes by THOMAS BAILEY ALDRICH-1437332724
Decoration Day is the most beautiful of our national holidays.... The grim cannon have turned into palm branches, and the shell and shrapnel into peach blossoms.
memorial day quotes by WILLIAM COLLINS-1437331373
How sleep the brave, who sink to rest,By all their country's wishes blest!When Spring, with dewy fingers cold,Returns to deck their hallow'd mould,She there shall dress a sweeter sod Than Fancy's feet have ever trod.By fairy hands their knell is rung,There Honour comes, a pilgrim gray,To bless the turf that wraps their clay;And Freedom shall awhile repair,To dwell, a weeping hermit, there.
memorial day quotes by RUPERT BROOKE-1437330102
Blow out, you bugles, over the rich Dead!There's none of these so lonely and poor of old,But, dying, has made us rarer gifts than gold.
memorial day quotes by FRANCIS MARION CRAWFORD-1437318820
They fell, but o'er their glorious graveFloats free the banner of the cause they died to save.
memorial day quotes by THOMAS CAMPBELL-1437315847
Is't death to fall for Freedom's right?He's dead alone who lacks her light!
memorial day quotes by JAMES GATES PERCIVAL-1437313988
Green sods are all their monuments; and yet it tellsA nobler history than pillared piles,Or the eternal pyramids.
memorial day quotes by HENRY WARD BEECHER-1437312250
Are they dead that yet speak louder than we can speak, and a more universal language? Are they dead that yet act? Are they dead that yet move upon society and inspire the people with nobler motives and more heroic patriotism?
memorial day quotes by THOMAS BAILEY ALDRICH-1437291149
With the tears a Land hath shedTheir graves should ever be green.
memorial day quotes by DANIEL WEBSTER-1437289498
