"It's time for
greatness,
not greed.
It's a time for
idealism,
not ideology.
It is a time
not just for
compassionate
words, but for
compassionate
action."

"Our country has become a great nation because its people have engaged, from the earliest years, in voluntarism. They have shown concern for each other in good, as well as in bad, times. We must do everything within our power to nurture caring and giving."

-PRESIDENT GEORGE BUSH

"It is at the grass roots, in the heart of every citizen that we will succeed or fail. We are taking a stand in this country for the proposition that if we challenge people to serve and we give them a chance to fulfill their abilities, more and more and more we will all understand that we must go forward together."

-PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON
