Just found this inspiring Latin motto, by serendipity -- how cool is that!?:
"Vigor in arduis" --- Latin for "strength in difficult times."
(Motto of Cardinal William Henry O'Connell, the late second Archbishop of Boston, whose grandnephew was Paul G. Kirk, Jr., U.S. Senator Ted Kennedy's political person and later briefly a U.S. Senator after EMK died. During my freshman and sophomore years, as an intern, commencing shortly after President Richard Milhous Nixon resigned in disgrace before impeachment, on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Friday afternoons during the school year, I would often deliver the mail to Paul and Gail Kirk in their office -- Paul Kirk et ux staffed the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee's Subcommittee on Refugees and Escapees from Communism)
