It seemed to me then, and it seems to me now, that Abraham Lincoln left to every American born after him a legacy in the form of a direct injunction to love his country, to study its needs, to make himself familiar with its poli- cies and its problems, and to labor with those like-minded with himself for... the advancement of all of these. The era of Lincoln, of the Civil War, and of nation-building — that great classic era in the history of the western world and of all mankind — is closed.
