"Freedom is never really won.You win it in every generation." Coretta King
Somehow these words gave me comfort when quoted this morning on ABC, after the events of yesterday and all the events of the past few years. Freedom is so very fragile, and not the normal state of man without continual vigilance, which Jefferson understood. The fight for it never ends. Battles are won, but there will be another. Battles are lost, but another will come, and must be fought.
