Progress Is The Sum Of Small Victories

In This Respect Early Youth Is Exactly Like Old Age; It Is A Time Of Waiting For A Big Trip To An Unknown Destination. The Chief Difference Is That Youth Waits For The Morning Limited And Age Waits For The Night Train

What Began As A Bitter Dispute Over Union And States' Rights, Ended As A Struggle Over The Meaning Of Freedom In America. At Gettysburg In 1863, Abraham Lincoln Said Perhaps More Than He Knew. The War Was About A New Birth Of Freedom.

A Singular Fact About Modern War Is That It Takes Charge. Once Begun It Has To Be Carried To Its Conclusion, And Carrying It There Sets In Motion Events That May Be Beyond Men's Control. Doing What Has To Be Done To Win, Men Perform Acts That Alter The Very Soil In Which Society's Roots Are Nourished.

Progress Is The Sum Of Small Victories Won By Individual Human Beings.
