That's a paraphrase of a quote from the mother of one of the passengers aboard Flight 93, that crashed, heroically, in rural Pennsylvania on September 11.
She was discussing the pros & cons of hearing the flight voice recorder tape yesterday, along with other family members, of the final moments of that flight. Did it do more harm than good?
She was asked, "Tonight, when you go to bed, will you be haunted by the tape?"
Her answer was about as powerful as they come!
God Bless those folks & their families ... it is hard to imagine a more heroic scenario unfolding. I hope that I can do as well if ever I am confronted with such a proposition.
