9/11 Quotes
Posted by Nick Aviles on September 11, 2009
It’s been exactly 8 years ago that the World Trade Centers in Manhattan New York have been destroyed. I have some 9 11 quotes that I want to share.
Quote #1
“Our enemies have made the mistake that America’s enemies always make. They saw liberty and thought they saw weakness. And now, they see defeat.”
- George W. Bush, President of the United States
Quote #2
“Now, we have inscribed a new memory alongside those others. It’s a memory of tragedy and shock, of loss and mourning. But not only of loss and mourning. It’s also a memory of bravery and self-sacrifice, and the love that lays down its life for a friend–even a friend whose name it never knew. “
- President George W. Bush, December 11, 2001
Quote #3
“Today, we gather to be reassured that God hears the lamenting and bitter weeping of Mother America because so many of her children are no more. Let us now seek that assurance in prayer for the healing of our grief stricken hearts, for the souls and sacred memory of those who have been lost. Let us also pray for divine wisdom as our leaders consider the necessary actions for national security, wisdom of the grace of God that as we act, we not become the evil we deplore.”
- Rev. Nathan Baxter, Dean of Washington National Cathedral

Tell me what you think about the post, I don't bite!
thank you for such a great post
I like quote #1, but I don’t like Bush, I’m glad he’s no longer in charge over there.
You’re welcome Jamie.
I don’t think the president is really fully in charge. After all, running a country is pretty difficult. But either way, I’m not a fan of Bush either.
I don’t think anyone will trust on Mr. Bush after after current economic crisis.
