"We are fighting not only to save our democracy, but also to reestablish the rule of law and rehabilitate America’s standing in the world. Those are daunting tasks. But we have already taken the first steps in a process that may take generations to complete.
Rather than despair that we are too late or that we may never see the fruits of our labor, we should celebrate the fact that we have the courage and foresight to take action that will benefit future generations. After all, we are the beneficiaries of the efforts of those who came before us. We should repay our debt to them by following their example. And if we get really lucky, our children and grandchildren will notice what we are doing and follow our lead."
