"A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day. An hour of woes and shattered shields, when the age of men comes crashing down! But it is not this day! This day we fight!"

(Viggo Mortensen as Aragorn in The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, 2003)

"For no government is better than the men who compose it, and I want the best, and we need the best, and we deserve the best."

(Senator John F. Kennedy, speech at Wittenberg College, Oct. 17, 1960)

"Then I'll be all aroun' in the dark. I'll be ever'where--wherever you look. Wherever they's a fight so hungry people can eat, I'll be there. Wherever they's a cop beatin' up a guy, I'll be there. . . . . An' when our folk eat the stuff they raise an' live in the houses they build--why, I'll be there."

(Tom Joad in John Steinbeck's novel The Grapes of Wrath, 1939)
