Famous quotes containing the words america and/or promise:

    The school is the last expenditure upon which America should be willing to economize.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    I have loved her all my youth,
    But now old, as you see;
    Love likes not the falling fruit
    From the withered tree.
    Know that love is a careless child
    And forgets promise past;
    He is blind, he is deaf when he list
    And in faith never fast.
    Sir Walter Raleigh (1552?–1618)
