February Words of Encouragement

In choosing the February Words of Encouragement, it would have been pretty predictable to do love quotes to honor Valentines Day, but with the uncertainty and chaos within this nation at this time, and in honor of our Presidents past, it made more sense to use quotes from different Presidents, that we can apply to relationships.
