"I do hereby proclaim October 15, 1996, as White Cane Safety Day."
"We can't tolerate a situation where any firefighter is unable to protect the public or themselves because of a lack of equipment."
"The brave men and women who are with us today put their lives on the line to protect their fellow citizens."
"I look forward to it, just as I looked forward to the last one."
