George Washington Carver once said: How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and strong, because someday in your life you will have been all of these. That was our friend, John Lewis. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentlewoman from Ohio (Mrs. Beatty).
