“The Occasion Is Piled High With Difficulty, And We Must Rise High With The Occasion.: Abraham Lincoln

I originally drew this in the immediate aftermath of 9/11. I have had it on flickr since then but, for some reason, I haven’t found the right time to post it to the Daily.

But with another tall, lanky Illini about to take the presidency I think the Lincoln quote is an appropriate one for the times. Let’s hope Obama, and we, rise to the occasion.
