Who wrote it?

I went for a walk in a park and saw this. I took a picture of the whole thing, then each letter. I wanted to share it with you, but decided to make a few games out of it. One is this one where you have to guess who wrote what on each of the letters, and one I will turn into a find the difference game and post it later on. 

Now for this one.   

Inside are 7 letters that make up the word America, each has a quote on it. Let’s see if you can match up the quote with who said it. Sound easy enough? 

Good luck!

  4. I got four right. You made a beautiful quiz, Kim, and all the quotes are very meaningful and moving. I wish some leaders today would read them and take them to heart!

    • You passed Norman, great going on this quiz, being from over there in that far off place…..Thank you for playing and yes some of our leaders today really need to listen to these words. I doubt Trump would get one of these correct.

    • #2 was the hardest one. That one isn’t mentioned as much. I would’ve gotten it wrong as well, but congratulations are in order, missing just one is fabulous!
