This is a quote which I've been pondering this week. We have lost and are losing so much of the Liberty that was gained for these States in the signing and outworking of the Declaration of Independence that at times it is overwhelmingly discouraging. This quote is on that hangs near me. It is written in the fly leaf of my journal.
"The march of Providence is so slow, and our desires so impatient; the work of progress is so immense and our means of aiding it so feeble; the life of humanity is so long, that of the individual so brief, that we often see only the ebb of the advancing wave and are thus discouraged. It is history that teaches us to hope."
-Robert E. Lee, shortly before his death
