Daniel Webster has a great quote: "I sought for the greatness of America in her commodious harbors & her ample rivers & it was not there. In her fertile fields & boundless prairies & it was not there. In her rich mines & her vast world commerce & it was not there. Not until I went to the churches of America & heard her pulpits aflame with righteousness did I understand the secret of her genius and her power. America is great because she is good & if America ever ceases to be good America will cease to be great."
