“The Federated Republic of Europe—the United States of Europe—that is what must be. National autonomy no longer suffices. Economic evolution demands the abolition of national frontiers. If Europe is to remain split into national groups, then Imperialism will recommence its work. Only a Federated Republic of Europe can give peace to the world.”

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“To you, God the Singer, our voices we raise,
to you Song Incarnate, we give all our praise,

“The contest ends at midnight tonight
But you can submit again, and again.”
