modestly explain
when you walk with giants, learn
to take bigger steps
Back in 2008, in an interview with the Toronto Star, actor Brian Dennehy was asked about his legendary Tony Award-winning performances in Death of a Salesman and Long Day’s Journey Into Night, giving the credit to authors Arthur Miller and Eugene O’Neill.
The writer, Richard Ouzounian, Theatre Critic for the Star wrote that Mr. Dennehy ‘modestly explains when you walk with giants, you learn to take bigger steps.’
This country used to dream big dreams.
The birth certificate of this country starts out with the words, We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.
This country used to walk to with Giants.
This country learned to take bigger steps.
This country had big people with big dreams who walked with Giants and learned to take bigger steps.
This country today IS taking giant steps.
But giant steps backwards that are guided by such little giants.
