Today we celebrate the changing of the guard—the miracle of democracy that has transitioned almost sixty times in our history.  And with it, a fresh start.  A time of healing over hurt.  A time of restoration amidst divide.  A time for possibilities and opportunities instead of broken dreams.  A time for diversity vs. adversity.  We look forward to a country unified and galvanized behind values and vision bigger than ourselves, to bridge the great divides of racial injustice, economic disparity, climate crises, and the dark cloud of a lingering pandemic.  We look to a future of what could and shall be if we look to our better angels to guide us.  Be inspired on this January day 2021 by these timeless inaugural quotes that are still relevant today:

Inspiring Inaugural Quotes Still Relevant Today

“With malice toward none, charity for all, with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation’s wounds,”—Abraham Lincoln

“We are caught in war, wanting peace. We are torn by division, wanting unity. We see around us empty lives, wanting fulfillment. We see tasks that need doing, waiting for hands to do them. To a crisis of the spirit, we need an answer of the spirit. To find that answer, we need only look within ourselves,”—Richard Nixon

“The only thing we have to fear is fear itself,”—Franklin Delano Roosevelt

“In the eyes of many in the world, this every four years ceremony we accept as normal is nothing less than a miracle,”—Ronald Reagan

“Sometimes our differences run so deep, it seems we share a continent but not a country. We do not accept this,”—George W. Bush

Inaugural Quotes from Biden and Obama
CHICAGO – NOVEMBER 04: U.S. President elect Barack Obama (L) and Vice-President elect Joe Biden wave to their supporters after Obama gave his victory speech during an election night gathering in Grant Park on November 4, 2008 in Chicago, Illinois. Obama defeated Republican nominee Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) by a wide margin in the election to become the first African-American U.S. President elect. (Photo by Scott Olson/Getty Images)

“Our journey has never been one of shortcuts or settling for less. It has not been the path for the faint-hearted, for those that prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame. Rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of things – some celebrated, but more often men and women obscure in their labor – who have carried us up the long-rugged path toward prosperity and freedom,”—Barack Obama

We must end this uncivil war that pits red against blue, rural versus urban, conservative versus liberal. We can do this, if we open our souls instead of hardening our hearts,”—President Joe Biden

Unity.  Healing.  Spirit.  Prosperity.  Freedom.  Love.  Charity.   In a nation longing for restoration, these will bind our wounds.  These will give us hope.  These are a beacon of light for our nation and the world.  Let us lift one another up to accomplish great things, to become a more perfect union.  For even more inspiration, check out Amanda Gorman’s The Hill We Climb, given at Biden’s Inauguration.
