Quote by Phillips Brooks
Stand up, on this Thanksgiving Day, stand upon your feet. Believe

Stand up, on this Thanksgiving Day, stand upon your feet. Believe in man. Soberly and with clear eyes, believe in your own time and place. There is not, and there never has been a better time, or a better place to live in. – Phillips Brooks
