Answer 1

"One year ago, men and women and children were killed here because they were Americans and because this place is a symbol to the world of our country's might and resolve. Today, we remember each life." —President Bush, at the Pentagon.

"The terrorists wanted Sept. 11 to be a day when innocents died. Instead it was a day when heroes were born." —Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, at the Pentagon.

"They were our neighbors, our husbands, our children, our sisters, our brothers, and our wives. They were our countrymen, and our friends. They were us." New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, at Ground Zero.

"If someone uses the slaughter of innocent people to advance a so-called political cause, at that point the political cause becomes immoral and unjust and they should be eliminated from any serious discussion, any serious debate." —Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, in CNN interview.

"I would give anything to go back to the morning of Sept. 11 and tell him how much I appreciated everything he's done for me. But I think he knows that now. In my eyes he died a hero. And how much more could you ask for?" —Marianne Keane, 17, eulogizing her stepfather, Franco Lalama, an engineer killed at the World Trade Center.

"Today, we gather to be reassured that God hears the lamenting and
bitter weeping of Mother America because so many of her children are
no more. Let us now seek that assurance in prayer for the healing of
our grief stricken hearts, for the souls and sacred memory of those
who have been lost. Let us also pray for divine wisdom as our leaders
consider the necessary actions for national security, wisdom of the
grace of God that as we act, we not become the evil we deplore."

Answer 2

This nation is peaceful, but fierce when stirred to anger.
This conflict was begun on the timing and terms of others;
it will end in a way and at an hour of our choosing.
~~ President George W. Bush, 14 Sep 2001,
Prayer service at the Washington National Cathedral.

"The terrorists wanted Sept. 11 to be a day when innocents died. Instead it was a day when heroes were born." —Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, at the Pentagon.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for,
protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our
sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once
like in the United States where men were free."
Ronald Reagan

The people who committed these acts are clearly determined to try to force
the United States of America and our values to withdraw from the world.
Or to respond by curtailing our freedoms. If we do that,
the terrorists will have won. And we have no intention of doing so.
~~Donald Rumsfeld, Defense Secretary

"We'll go forward from this Moment"
~~ Leonard Pitts, Jr., 12 Sep 2001

Our enemies have made the mistake that Americas enemies always make.
They saw liberty and thought they saw weakness. And now, they see defeat.
~~George W. Bush, President of the United States

"Today, we gather to be reassured that God hears the lamenting and
bitter weeping of Mother America because so many of her children are
no more. Let us now seek that assurance in prayer for the healing of
our grief stricken hearts, for the souls and sacred memory of those
who have been lost. Let us also pray for divine wisdom as our leaders
consider the necessary actions for national security, wisdom of the
grace of God that as we act, we not become the evil we deplore."

Answer 4

It's hard to give you one without knowing what you wrote about--was it the human experience, or what we have learned, or the conspiracy theory, or the health problems...?
