One hour of life, crowded to the full with glorious action, and filled with noble risks, is worth whole years of those mean observances of paltry decorum, in which men steal through existence, like sluggish waters through a marsh, without either honor or observation.Walter Scott

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