Independence Day
The greatest gifts you can give your children are the roots of responsibility and the wings of independence. – Denis Waitley
True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made. – Franklin D. Roosevelt
The four cornerstones of character on which the structure of this nation was built are: Initiative, Imagination, Individuality and Independence. – Eddie Rickenbacker
There is no dignity quite so impressive, and no one independence quite so important, as living within your means. – Calvin Coolidge
