    Without being bound to the fulfillment of promises, we would never be able to keep our identities; we would be condemned to wander helplessly and without direction in the darkness of each man’s lonely heart, caught in its contradictions and equivocalities—a darkness which only the light shed over the public realm through the presence of others, who confirm the identity between the one who promises and the one who fulfills, can dispel.
    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)

    “In the lonely barton by yonder coomb
    Our childhood used to know,”
    I should go with him in the gloom,
    Hoping it might be so.
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    Always the heart and the soul of our country will be the heart and the soul of the common man; the men and the women who never have ceased to believe in democracy. Who never have ceased to love their families, their home, and their country.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
