Tony Hoagland:

In the big store window of the travel agency downtown,
a ten-foot sign says, WE WILL NEVER FORGET.

The letters have been cut with scissors out of blue construction paper
and pasted carefully to the sign by someone's hand.

What I want to know is, who will issue the ticket
for improper use of the collective pronoun?
What I want to know is, who will find and punish the maker
of these impossible promises?

Rebecca Brock:

You can't even remember what I'm trying to forget.

Kellan Elliott-McCrea:

Don't let your design make promises you can't keep.

Richard Holbrooke:

Only with hindsight can one look back and see that the smartest course may not have been the right one.
