Sometimes in life, you become aware that you have more money than friends. But let me tell you, it's not about the numbers or material possessions. True wealth lies in the genuine connections we cherish, the kind hearts that surround us, and the loyal souls that stand by our side through thick and thin. So, do not let the illusion of wealth deceive you, for those who have nothing but genuine love and support are richer than any fortune in the world. It is during testing times, when you see the true colors of those around you, and that is where your true wealth truly lies.

It is not my intention to do away with government. It is, rather, to make it work -- work with us, not over us; to stand by our side, not ride on our back. Government can and must provide opportunity, not smother it; foster productivity, not stifle it. It is no coincidence that our present troubles parallel and are proportionate to the intervention and intrusion in our lives that result from unnecessary and excessive growth of government. ... We shall reflect the compassion that is so much a part of your makeup. How can we love our country and not love our countrymen, and loving them, not reach out a hand when they fall, heal them when they are sick, and provide opportunities to make them self-sufficient so they will be equal in fact and not just in theory? ... We are a nation under God, and I believe God intended for us to be free. It would be fitting and good, I think, if on each Inauguration Day in future years it should be declared a day of prayer.
