Bud Wilkinson

thumb| Charles Burnham "Bud" Wilkinson (April 23, 1916 – February 9, 1994) was an American football player, coach, broadcaster, and politician. Quotes To fully live as a responsible, free citizen of this, the world's greatest nation, requires dedication, participation, and full involvement in the affairs of our Republic, for the course we select will determine the future of this land. I hold that man is a child of God, not a child of the State; that man is a spiritual being who, as Christ said, cannot live by bread alone. ... If America is to regain its greatness, we must stop gagging at the word, spiritual. We must reaffirm our faith in those spiritual qualities on which American society has really rested since its beginning. Address before the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.
