you have to find your innermost core on your own,
with no guide, no guiding scriptures.

has found the sunrise.

they are simply avoiding the great adventure
of religion by believing.

We've got some difficult days ahead.
But it doesn't matter with me now.
Because I've been to the mountaintop.
And I don't mind. Like any man,
I would like to live a long life.
Longevity has its place.
But I'm not concerned about that now.

And I've seen the promised land.
I may not get there with you.
But I want you to know tonight, that we,
as a people, will get to the promised land.
