"Be ashamed to die before you have won some victory for humanity." -- Horace Mann
And BTW, Horace Mann was a Republican (Whig actually - but a Repub nonetheless); back when Republicans stood for some pretty cool things - like Secular Public Schools, and Fairness, and making sure Government Power was a force to protect the little guy from the excesses of an unaccountable Oligarchy, and a lot of other Progressive Values.
I wonder what happened.
