Shining a Light on the Positive Character Values of Our Past Presidents and What They Can Teach Us, Especially for Our Children
Hear Ye! Hear Ye! is an entertaining and insightful book full of the wit and wisdom of 14 U.S. presidents, plus founding father Benjamin Franklin. The timeless advice of these 15 leaders focuses on the best of American character values and how these values effect our lives today.
During my lifetime, several of our U.S. presidents have not always been good representatives of sterling character. The impact of deceitful conduct by our leaders on our American culture is troubling, especially on our youth. Hear Ye! Hear Ye! was written to shine a light on the positive personal character values of many of our past presidents. I believe we can all benefit from the wisdom and advice of our past leaders, such as:
Red, White, and Blue Character Gems
George Washington: "You are defined by your integrity and your moral and ethical standards."
Theodore Roosevelt: "Live every day to its utmost with throttle wide open."
Dwight D. Eisenhower: "Find work-life balance. Work a 36-hole golf work-week."
Gerald Ford: "There is no substitute in life for a loving family, and understand that being a good mother is the most challenging job on earth."
Wit and Wisdom
Abraham Lincoln: "...he was the very essence and substance of truth; and was of unbounded veracity, had unlimited integrity, always telling the truth and always doing the honest thing at all times and under all circumstances."
Benjamin Franklin: "Be at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors and let every new year find you a better man."
Calvin Coolidge: "...material rewards are limited, and in a sense, they are only incidental, but development of character is unlimited and is the only essential. The measure of success is not the quantity of merchandise, but the quality of manhood which is produced."
Gerald Ford: "I do not think a president under any circumstances ought to lie to the American people."
George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln are the presidents depicted on Mount Rushmore, each of whom are included in Hear Ye! Hear Ye! Find out who I selected as my personal Character Mount Rushmore. Spoiler Alert: Only one of the men of Mount Rushmore was chosen for my Character Mount Rushmore.
Here ye! Here ye! is an inspirational treasure of our past presidents' insights and wit, published in full color with stunning historical photographs, paintings, and illustrations.
