8. "Allow yourself that conceit - to believe that the flame of democracy"
"will never go out as long as there's one candle in your hand."

From the Moyers speech.
Thanks WT2

10. Let's take back those Thousand Points of Light
Great image of the candle. A beautiful, simple, personal way to gently remind people that that is what Democracy IS. Americans have become accustomed to an abstraction, as spectators.

Some of us got hit with the Big Candle notion that each of us embodies Democracy, or there isn't one.

I appreciate you sharing the Moyers piece tonight. The lucid and positive writers are much needed. Inspiration, when the obfuscation has become too much. A light in the darkness.
