One more day
One more night
One more sunset maybe I'd be satisfied
But then again, I know what it would do
Leave me wishing still for one more day with you

... And I’m proud to be an American,
where at least I know I’m free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.
And I gladly stand up,
next to you and defend her still today.
'Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land,
God bless the USA.
Performed by Lee Greenwood

I believe that heroes are the people who do what has to be done
when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.

I believe that the people you care about most in life are taken
from you too soon.
