"We Force the Spring," Reinventing America

Today is the first day of Spring. Here's my quote du jour:

"[B]y the words we speak and the faces we show the world, we force the spring. A spring reborn in the world's oldest democracy that brings forth the vision and courage to reinvent America." -- President William Jefferson Clinton, January 20, 1993 Inaugural Address (written by the late Georgetown University President and New York Public Library President Father Timothy Healy, S.J., who left a draft of the Inaugural Address in his briefcase, found after he dropped dead in the Newark Airport, returning from vacation in the southwest).
