A Nation's Strength

Not gold, but only man can make

A people great and strong;

Men who, for truth and honor's sake,

Stand fast and suffer long.

Brave men who work while others sleep,

Who dare while others fly--

Thy build a nation's pillars deep

And lift them to the sky.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
