We could fall—

And if we go too fast—

It can go wrong—therefore,

We must take one cautious step

at a time. . .”

—Mette Frederiksen

“We will beat this—

By being smart—

and tough—

      and united. . .”

“None of us has the luxury

of choosing our challenges—

Fate and history provide them for us—

Our job is to meet the tests

we are presented. . .”

—Jerome Powell
