Did George Washington say the following about the U.S. flag? We take the stars from heaven, the red from our mother country, separating it by white stripes, thus showing that we have separated from her quoteinvestigator.com/2026/06/16/s...

Your Jun 14 discussion inspired creation of Quote Investigator article: We take the stars from heaven, the red from our mother country, separating it by white stripes quoteinvestigator.com/2026/06/16/s... @fakehistoryhunter.net clgood.bsky.social @jrtonca.bsky.social @barthsnotes.bsky.social
The book "Letters Home: Advice from the Wisest Men and Women" (1997) by George and Karen Grant claims quotation is in a letter from Theodore Roosevelt to his daughter. I have not yet been able to verify this @bjkeefe.bsky.social @timmarchman.bsky.social

Here is link to "Works of Theodore Roosevelt" Vol XIX, 1926 edition. Volume contains letters from Roosevelt to his children, but I cannot find quotation "Courage is not having the strength ..." archive.org/details/foes... @bjkeefe.bsky.social @timmarchman.bsky.social
Preliminary analysis. Theodore Roosevelt attribution unsupported. Earliest match in poem by Ken Harris on Feb 19, 1972 in Springfield Daily News of Ohio @timmarchman.bsky.social @bjkeefe.bsky.social
Quote Origin: Punks Are Basically Nice People Pretending To Be Mean, Whereas Hippies Are Mean People Pretending To Be Nice How old is this saying? Who created it? Gordon Edgar? John Ross Bowie? Anonymous? quoteinvestigator.com/2026/06/18/p...
I'd been wondering about the neo-proverb "Punks are good people pretending to be bad; hippies are bad people pretending to be good", so I punted it over to @quoteinvestigator.com to research. It does seem genuinely new, but no specific origin. Anyone know more? quoteinvestigator.com/2026/06/18/p...
