Today’s Herbert Hoover’s birthday, so the coloring page I’m sharing is in his honor. Herbert Hoover Coloring Page.
The 31st president of these United States served our country from 1929 to 1933, but this quote sounds as if he might’ve been talking about modern times.
“Every collectivist revolution rides in on a Trojan horse of emergency.”
The collectivists in our country have certainly made good use of the emergencies we’ve faced during the past couple of years, haven’t they?
More Words of Wisdom from Herbert Hoover
Hoover was full of pithy quotes and insightful observations. Here are a few of my favorites, among many:
- “It is a paradox that every dictator has climbed to power on the ladder of free speech. Immediately on attaining power each dictator has suppressed all free speech except his own.”
- “We need to add to the three R’s, namely Reading, ‘Riting, and ‘Rithmetic, a fourth— RESPONSIBILITY.”
- “Freedom is the open window through which pours the sunlight of the human spirit and human dignity.”
- “Be patient and calm; no one can catch fish in anger.”
