RACE of veterans! Race of victors! <br /> Race of the soil, ready for conflict! race of the conquering march! <br /> (No more credulity's race, abiding-temper'd race;) <br /> Race henceforth owning no law but the law of itself; <br /> Race of passion and the storm.<br /><br />Walt Whitman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/race-of-veterans/
