Notable Quotes – Captain Richard Phillips

by Skip

I’m just the byline. The real heroes are the Navy, the Seals, those who have brought me home.

- Captain Richard Phillips (captain of the MV Maersk Alabama, who traded his life for those of his crew)

The ‘Grok thanks the Captain for being a humble hero.  The ‘Grok also thanks those who will never be known but whose actions will never forgotten.  We thank them also for the actions that will never see the light of day but keep us safe in ways we can’t even dream about.

Co-founder of GraniteGrok, my concern is around Individual Liberty and Freedom (and how Government is taking that away from us). My fight, from a Conservative (with small "L" libertarian leanings) and evangelical Christian perspective, is with the Progressives that are forcing a collectivized and secular humanistic future upon us. As TEA Party activist, citizen journalist (and pundit!), my goal is to use the New Media to advance the radical notions of America's Founders back into our culture again.
