Quotes

• The works and prayers of centuries
     Have brought us to this day...
  What shall be our legacy?
     What will our children say?...
  Let me know in my heart,
     When my days are through,
  America, America,
     I gave my best to you.
  • "American Anthem" (late 1990s), quoted by President Joe Biden in his Inaugural Address (January 20, 2021) [1]
