"I know many people feel like we are entering a dark time, but for the benefit of us all, I hope that is not the case. But here's the thing, America, if it is, let us fill the sky with the light of a brilliant, brilliant billion of stars. The light, the light of optimism, of faith, of truth and service. And may that work guide us, even in the face of setbacks toward the extraordinary promise of the United States of America."

~ V.P. Kamala Harris, Nov. 6, 2024

"There's an adage an historian once called a law of history, true of every society across the ages. The adage is only when it is dark enough can you see the stars."
