"We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break, our bonds of affection."
This is just a short blurb I wanna get off before I go to bed. I really appreciate a lot of what Lincoln says, and in particular I find the Ghettysburg Adress (cliched, maybe, but classic) very moving. But for whatever reason, I feel this quote in particular strikes a chord within me. Maybe because I think that the major problem with politics today is this whole "us against them" mentality. Anyway, goodnight.
