Something like a crossroads song. - "Know that your people will judge you on what you can build, not what you destroy."

"Know that your people will judge you on what you can build, not what you destroy."

"We ask you to help us work for that day when black will not be asked to give back, when brown can stick around, when yellow will be mellow, when the red man can get ahead, man, and when white will embrace what is right." - The Rev. Joseph Lowery.

I keep having to resist the urge to run outside and scream my heart out. I'm just so motherfucking happy.

If course you can! I just stole it from the New York Times - continuing the criminal circle will do nothing to counter the sparkly effect of HOPE AND LOVE AND OH MY GOD PRESIDENT OBAMA. :D
