This is a puzzle cache. The cache is not hidden at the above
coordinates, but it is within 4 km. The idea is based on a cool
cache that I found recently in sunny Surrey.
Your challenge is to identify the speakers of the quotes that
are listed.
First, write the name of the speaker beside each quote:
1) "A government big enough to give you everything you want is a
government big enough to take from you everything you have."
2) "I have left orders to be awakened at any time in case of
national emergency, even if I'm in a cabinet meeting."
3) "If men can develop weapons that are so terrifying as to make
the thought of global war include almost a sentence for suicide,
you would think that man's intelligence and his comprehension...
would include also his ability to find a peaceful solution."
4) "Many years ago the great British explorer George Mallory,
who was to die on Mount Everest, was asked why did he want to climb
it. He said, "Because it is there." Well, space is there, and we're
going to climb it, and the moon and the planets are there, and new
hopes for knowledge and peace are there. And, therefore, as we set
sail we ask God's blessing on the most hazardous and dangerous and
greatest adventure on which man has ever embarked."
5) “Associate with men of good quality if you esteem your own
reputation; for it is better to be alone than in bad company.”
6) "I would rather the man who presents something for my
consideration subject me to a zephyr of truth and a gentle breeze
of responsibility rather than blow me down with a curtain of hot
wind."
7) "Major combat operations in Iraq have ended. In the battle of
Iraq, the United States and our allies have prevailed."
8) "When I was in England, I experimented with marijuana a time
or two, and I didn't like it. I didn't inhale and never tried it
again."
9) "I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of
freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments by those
in power than by violent and sudden usurpations."
10) “Focusing your life solely on making a buck shows a certain
poverty of ambition. It asks too little of yourself. Because it's
only when you hitch your wagon to something larger than yourself
that you realize your true potential.”
11) "A desire to be observed, considered, esteemed, praised,
beloved, and admired by his fellows is one of the earliest as well
as the keenest dispositions discovered in the heart of man."
12) "A coward is much more exposed to quarrels than a man of
spirit."
13) "America did not invent human rights. In a very real sense,
it is the other way around. Human rights invented America."
14) "I have never been a quitter. To leave office before my term
is completed is opposed to every instinct in my body. But as
president I must put the interests of America first Therefore, I
shall resign the presidency effective at noon tomorrow."
