''Let justice roll on like a river''

''Let justice roll on like a river, righteousness in a never-ending stream.''

Holy crap Bernie is bringing the Bible into his speech. He isn't backing down from his beliefs, yet he's still finding common ground.

Calling it now, this goes down as one of the greatest speeches of this Presidential cycle, if not of all time.
