My mother was the one constant in my life. When I think about my mom raising me alone when she was 20, and working and paying the bills, and, you know, trying to pursue your own dreams, I think is a feat that is unmatched.

In a moment when the outcome of our revolution was most in doubt the father of our nation ordered these words be read to the people.
