We will always remember. We will always be proud. We will always be
prepared, so we will always be free.
Ronald Reagan
So long as they don't get violent, I want to let everyone say what they
wish, for I myself have always said exactly what pleased me. -- Albert
Einstein
CIX
O! never say that I was false of heart,
Though absence seem'd my flame to qualify,
As easy might I from my self depart
As from my soul which in thy breast doth lie:
That is my home of love: if I have rang'd,
Like him that travels, I return again;
Just to the time, not with the time exchang'd,
So that myself bring water for my stain.
Never believe though in my nature reign'd,
All frailties that besiege all kinds of blood,
That it could so preposterously be stain'd,
To leave for nothing all thy sum of good;
For nothing this wide universe I call,
Save thou, my rose, in it thou art my all.
--William Shakespeare
Beauty in nature's coin must not be hoarded,
But must be current, and the good thereof,
Consists in mutual and partaken bliss.
-Milton (1634)
