I visited the Lincoln Memorial last weekend.
The colossal 19-foot statue of Abraham Lincoln loomed above me, looking towards the East. Thinking big thoughts. My friend used to leave cupcakes on the steps for him when she was a child.
It may be inspired by the Greek Parthenon, but it is built of Indiana limestone and Colorado Yule marble and stands for everything great about America.
