Russell Davenport

Russell Wheeler Davenport (1899 – April 19, 1954) was an American editor, political consultant, and writer. Quotes My Country (1944) All tongues and races are American,All nations are embodied in her job,To breed the noble concept of a manWhose freedom is, that others should be free. Pt. I, p. 3 [Variant: 'countries and all races' for 'tongues and races'] My country loves the lovers of her flag:The strong, oracular emblem of her will —The spangled cloth of peace — the bloody ragAbove embattled gulch and smoking hill,Like freedom nailed in pain against the sky. Pt. IV, p. 56 Freedom is not to limit, but to share;And freedom here is freedom everywhere. Pt. IV, p. 62 External links Category:Editors from the United States Category:Publishers from the United States Category:Non-fiction authors from the United States Category:Yale University alumni Category:People from Pennsylvania Category:1899 births Category:1954 deaths
