Newton B. Drury Quotes
By patience and determination, rather than by a harsh upsetting of tradition, we move toward our national aspirations.... This is the way we get things done in America.

Then occurs our miracle of democracy: because the groundwork has been surely laid, the goal is already within our grasp.
