Akela3rd Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Last I heard from the forum owner here, US politics are off limits. You really want to ride that train? To be fair quite a few countries have presidents and obviously those without male presidents can't be 'Mr President'. The origin of this mysteriously anodyne and unoriginal quote therefore remains an open book... Sent from Cosmos Redshift 7 Link to post Share on other sites

TBird55 Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 The Auburn Creed I believe that this is a practical world and that I can count only on what I earn. Therefore, I believe in work, hard work. I believe in education, which gives me the knowledge to work wisely and trains my mind and my hands to work skillfully. I believe in honesty and truthfulness, without which I cannot win the respect and confidence of my fellow men. I believe in a sound mind, in a sound body and a spirit that is not afraid, and in clean sports that develop these qualities. I believe in obedience to law because it protects the rights of all. I believe in the human touch, which cultivates sympathy with my fellow men and mutual helpfulness and brings happiness for all. I believe in my Country, because it is a land of freedom and because it is my own home, and that I can best serve that country by "doing justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with my God." And because Auburn men and women believe in these things, I believe in Auburn and love it. -George Petrie (1943) 3 Link to post Share on other sites
GVan Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 My second favorite quote - and one that seems very fitting for this forum: "It is a funny thing about life: if you refuse to accept anything but the best, you often get it" W. Somerset Maugham 1 Link to post Share on other sites
