This quote says a lot about what Congress should do as stewards for the American People it is found within the House of Representatives Chamber; located on the wall above the Speakers chair.
"Let us develope the resources of our land, call forth its powers, build up its institutions, promote all its great interests, and see whether we also, in our day and generation, may not perform something worthy to be remembered.“ -- Daniel Webster, June 17, 1825
This single quote directs Congress to not focus on itself as the source of greatness in our nation but to be the silent enabler for the American People as "We the People" use our resources to benefit this Nation. Today our Politicians have strayed far from this concept. |
