Someone posted the one that is my favorite a couple of weeks ago:

"The work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives, and the dream shall never die." (1980 Democratic Convention speech.)

I wish to God Teddy had not had to deliver so many eulogies over the years, but no one writes or delivers more heartfelt tributes. I have to believe he writes them himself; that he does not hand such sensitive tasks over to a staff member.

As one small example, I remember this line from his remembrance of JFK, Jr.: "He was granted every gift but length of years."

(I am on disability and live many states away from MA, but none of us living in the "shadows of life" has a better champion anywhere than Ted Kennedy.)
