a great john adams quote where he says constitution was made for religious and moral people and if you take that away, you're going to be in trouble. ronald reagan constantly quoted george washington on this, on prayer. washington said that the image -- the image of george washington was the most sublime image in american history. why? because it personified a people but it wasn't enough to depend on their own courage and goodness. they must also seek help from god, their father and their preserver. bilthough clark was close to rod reagan. aside from that washington one was from lincoln. by the overwhelming conviction that i have nowhere else to go, that i have nowhere else to go. and to the contrary he deeply feared what happens to a free democratic society or any society when its scraps that religious faith. here's a great speech that he gave in october of 1988 at georgetown. at the bicentennial. i also have this speech in the book so you wouldn't think of that one. reagan said freedom is the first principle of society of the western society. and yet it cannot exist alone. and that i
