	Nice quiz. I would add another minute (I felt a bit rushed toward the end, but did have enough time to finish), and "I house" in the Lincoln quote should be "A house." 5 globes.

	I agree with chair, I did feel rushed at the end but finished. I like the good array of quotes. FDR in particular was a good speaker.

	You have "by the people" and "for the people" switched. "By" comes before "For".

	Thanks for the suggestions everyone! I added an extra minute.

	Is it one life to "live" or one life to "give"?

	@honkytonkman: Definitely "give" (though the whole thing may be apocryphal). Also, "destoyer" should be "destroyer."

	USA! USA! USA!

	Good quiz! One thing: the Gettysburg Address ends "shall not perish from THE earth," and not "from this earth."

	Excellent quiz. Perhaps make an international version as well.

	The FDR quote is "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself."

	AMAZING quiz. It's also really fun to read each of these quotes in character as you go along. Trust me.

	That awkward moment when you guess "cannot stand" for FDR.

	Very nice! Five-starred, favorited and nominated.

	I read them all in a Kennedy voice and it made the quiz ten times better

	Hey, Geo1... several commenters above have noted that there are inaccuracies in some quotes. Have you thoroughly researched all of those (since), to ensure that your sources are valid? I only did a quick peek at a couple, and it looks like some of those reports should be looked into (if you want this quiz, which I like, by the way, to be just a bit tidier and spot-on). Thanks, -napb (History editor)

	Geo1:	Feb 8th, 2013 at 21:32 GMT		2 points
	@napd: I have changed the mistakes that have been noted in the comments and I have researched the quotes for the accuracy (a few changes were made; there were some phrases that should've had contractions and a couple of words that had to be changed). So, to my knowledge, the quiz is as accurate as it could be.

	@honkytonkman: It's actually neither! Instead, Hale said "one life to lose for my country."

	The "Star Spangled Banner" was playing in my head as I played this quiz. So awesome.

	Too U.S.-centric. /sarcasm

	Good quiz and they're all good quotes, but can I suggest having a little more variety among speakers? You have 3 quotes from FDR, 2 from JFK, and 2 from Lincoln. Maybe you should limit it to just one quote per speaker.

	Just clicking the cross of gold speech gives me chills. Regardless of political alignment, W.J. Bryan was a pretty awesome dude.
