VOICES OF NINE-ELEVEN

"Just before sunset on September 11, I drove up to the National Cathedral. From Beauvoir I could look down on all of Washington-- the Capitol, the monuments. The Pentagon itself was obscured by trees, but a huge plume of smoke rose up and hung over most of the view. Helicopters buzzed low over the city like dragonflies. Standing on this sweet, innocent ground--where little children learn and play with their friends--and looking out at the distant signs of horror, I could feel in my bones what I previously knew as an abstraction: that we live in a good and blessed place, but evil is never far away."  -- Quote from a card placed in one of the glass towers of Stephen Rueckert’s sculpture, Voices of Nine-Eleven.
