"If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies, Or being hated, don’t give way to hating, And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:................................................................Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!" - Rudyard Kipling

Hold the line, Pedes. This is a time for strength, not weakness. Our fore-fathers bled so we could be free. Hold the line.

I have this framed as it has always been one of my favorites! The Critic by Teddy Roosevelt and The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost are my other 2.
