The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here.
President Abraham Lincoln
Gettysburg Address
November, 1863
During his Gettysburg Address, President Lincoln humbly acknowledged that his brief speech would not stand the test of time - that words alone could never compare to the actions of the men who nobly fought and died here.
However, his important words still resonate today. Gettysburg and Lincoln’s address still inspire new dialogues and thoughtful discussions.
