Our country may be rich in goods, but we are poor in spirit  (National Character Quotes) Forms of government are forged mainly in the fire of practice, not in the vacuum of theory.

Perhaps the same moral cause may originate both  (National Character Quotes) I have always believed that national character... depends more on the female part of society than is generally imagined. Precepts from the lips of a beloved mother... sink deep in the heart, and make an impression which is seldom entirely effaced  (National Character Quotes) The crucial disadvantage of aggression, competitiveness and skepticism as national characteristics is that these qualities cannot be turned off at five o’clock  (National Character Quotes) In the last analysis, our national future depends upon our national character that is, whether it is spiritually or materially minded  (National Character Quotes) A character standard is far more important than even a gold standard. The success of all economic systems is still dependent upon both righteous leaders and righteous people. In the last analysis, our national future depends upon our national character that is, whether it is spiritually or materially minded  (National Character Quotes) Most importantly, nothing has happened to change my conviction that freedom and the love of liberty remain the essential defining attributes of our national character as a people  (National Character Quotes) The German national character is a favorite subject of character experts, probably because the less mature a nation, the more she is an object of criticism and not of history  (National Character Quotes) I, with other Americans, have perhaps unduly resented the stream of criticism of American life... More particularly have I resented the sneers at Main Street. For I have known that in the cottages that lay behind the street rested the strength of our national character  (National Character Quotes) As one digs deeper into the national character of the Americans, one sees that they have sought the value of everything in this world only in the answer to this single question: how much money will it bring in?  (National Character Quotes)
