“Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed, to me: I lift my lamp beside the golden door.”
Lyndon B. Johnson“The land flourished because it was fed from so many sources--because it was nourished by so many cultures and traditions and peoples.”
