If anyone needs a poem for their English class here it is. Pride Takes Down The Strongest Of Men ~

Pride fuels the corrupted hearts of men,
Dragging them down to the darkest places,
It can affect children and women,
It puts a saddened look on their faces.

It takes their control and breaks it,
Some murder those pure from it’s hold,
Infecting those it has bit,
Disguising itself as gold,

Those who fall victim to its manipulation,
They believe that they have done no wrong,
Unknowingly causing them self mutilation,
They believe that they picked the right song,

Some take it as far as to kill for it as it’s servant,
To fulfill its dark intentions,
Joining others in it’s self made covenant,
It has repeated over thousands of generations,

It is as strong today as it was then,
Pride takes down the strongest of men.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
