Tribute to 9/11 – our capacity to meet a challenge may well be limitless…

“We did not expect, nor did we invite a confrontation with evil.  Yet the true measure of a people’s strength is how they rise to master that moment when it does arise. … The streets of heaven are too crowded with angels tonight.  They’re our students, and our teachers, and our parents and our friends.  The streets of heaven are too crowded with angels. …But every time we think we’ve measured our capacity to meet a challenge, we look up and we’re reminded that that capacity may well be limitless.  We will do what is hard , we will achieve what is great… And we reach for the stars.  God bless their memory”.
