Light Quotes
-
Fellow citizens, we cannot escape history. We, of this Congress and this administration, will be remembered in spite of ourselves.

All love is sweet, Given or returned. Common as light is love, And its familiar voice wearies not ever. Like the wide heaven, the all-sustaining air, It makes the reptile equal to the God; They who inspire it most are fortunate, As I am now; but those who feel it most Are happier still.
