A Quote by Mike Quigley

For decades, allies have counted on the U.S. to step up to the plate to work with them to protect the shared values we hold dear. As we face numerous international challenges, both old and new, we need to put more faith and investment in our international and diplomatic institutions, not weaken them.

I will ever hold you up and hold you dear, lover mine.

J.R. Ward
