We only live once… We pass through this world on our way to whatever lies beyond, and we’re expected to preserve it, this last best hope of mankind, and hand it off to our children and grandchildren in better shape than it was handed it off to us.

That’s called Duty.

“And then spoke Horatius, the captain of the gate… To every man on this earth, death comes sooner or late. And What Better way For a man to die, then facing fearful odds… For the ashes of his fathers, and the temples of his gods.”

That is Patrick Buchanan's favorite quotation.
