Michigan Motto
"Si quaeris peninsulam amoenam, circumspice" (If you seek a pleasant peninsula, look about you.)
Adopted in 1835.
Language: Latin
Focus: Geographical
The State motto of Michigan, Si Quaeris Peninsulam Amoenam Circumspice, meaning If you seek a pleasant peninsula, look around you, is said to have been suggested by the mural inscription on the north door of St. Paul's Cathedral in London, which reads, Si Monumentum Requiris Circumspice. Adopted in 1835.
There are four states with mottos that focus on geography:
- Alaska: "North to the Future"
- Minnesota: "L'Etoile du Nord" (Star of the North),
- Indiana: "The Crossroads of America"
- Michigan: "Si Quaeris Peninsulam Amoenam Circumspice" (If You Seek a Pleasant Peninsula, Look About You)
