On the recordNovember 30, 2001
I rise to honor the humanitarian workers in Afghanistan like the Mercy Corps group who when the Afghani people said, ``I need you,'' they did not respond, ``Don't bother me.'' I want to tell you, it is a long, long, long and hard road that they are walking. And their efforts are their own, not paid for by the taxman. Their work is really something. And because of their work, someday the Afghani people will be able to say, ``Here comes the sun,'' and I say, ``It's all right.''
