Here a a few quotes from some very famous Freemasons.
“We represent a fraternity which believes in justice and truth and honorable action in your community…men who are endeavoring to be better citizens…[and] to make a great country greater. This is the only institution in the world where we can meet on the level all sorts of people who want to live rightly.”
Harry S. Truman
President of the United States
“There is no doubt in my mind that Masonry is the cornerstone of America.”
Dave Thomas
Founder of Wendy’s International
“The Masonic Fraternity is one of the most helpful mediating and conserving organizations among men, and I have never wavered from that childhood impression, but it has stood steadfastly with me through the busy, vast hurrying years.”
George W. Truett
Southern Baptist Leader
“Freemasonry embraces the highest moral laws and will bear the test of any system of ethics or philosophy ever promulgated for the uplift of man.”
Douglas MacArthur
General of the Army
“To me, Freemasonry is one form of dedication to God and service to humanity.”
Norman Vincent Peale
Minister and Author
“Let us endeavor so to live that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry.”
—Brother Mark Twain
“We can only know the fullest joys of Masonry when we truly walk the paths of service and of hard work in the quarries.”
—George E. Burow
There are parts of a ship which taken by themselves would sink. The engine would sink. The propeller would sink. But when the parts of a ship are built together, they float. So with the events of my life. Some have been tragic. Some have been happy. But when they are built together, they form a craft that floats and is going places. And I am comforted. -Ralph W. Sockman
