“Fellow Americans, our duty is
before us. Let us go forward, determined to serve selflessly a vision of man
with God, government for people, and humanity at peace. For it is now our
task to tend and preserve, through the darkest and coldest nights, that
‘sacred fire of liberty’ that President Washington spoke of two centuries
ago, a fire that... remains a beacon to all the oppressed of the world,
shining forth from this kindly, pleasant, greening land we call America.”
—Ronald Reagan
