You Are The Stars
Special Olympics Meme, Jean-Marie Lee, 2018

JML-PLOGS poetic commentary is below

Speech at the first Special Olympics

In ancient Rome, the gladiators went into the arena
with these words on their lips: let me win, but if I
cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt. Today,
all of you young athletes are in the arena. Many of
you will win. But even more important, I know you
will be brave and bring credit to your parents and
to your country.

Let us begin the Olympics, thank you.

~Eunice Shriver
Soldier Field, Chicago, Illinois (20 July 1968)
