Last night's American Theatre Wing (Tony Award) winner for Best Lead Actress in a Musical, Alice Ripley, for her role in Next to Normal, ever so eloquently reminded us of President John F. Kennedy's words posted at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC: "I am certain that after the dust of centuries has passed over our cities, we too, will be remembered not for our victories or defeats in battle or in politics, but for our contribution to the human spirit." Watch her acceptance speech below, and consider using this quote as a springboard to your journal entry today. What do thes words stir or inspire in you?
