Every man is a borrower and a mimic, life is theatrical and literature a quotation.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
What gives us hope is that a great idealistic movement rose up to support him. Some say a million and a half volunteers. Millions more donated to his campaign. He won votes that crossed the lines of gender, age, race, ethnicity, geography and political party. He was the right man at a dangerous time. If ever a president was elected by we the people, he is that president.
This land was made for you and me - Roger Ebert’s Journal
