"… I am sure of this: America is much harder to destroy than people are<\/p>\n

… A lot of fine people were killed only a few minutes ago, but America is<\/p>\n

share, it’s the things we all believe in, most of all it’s things we all do,<\/p>\n

and how we do them. You can’t destroy things like that. Nobody can, no matter<\/p>\n

how hard they might try, because we are who and what we choose to be. We<\/p>\n

invented that idea here, and nobody can destroy that either." <\/i> – Jack<\/p>\n
