“Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates
shall stand a mighty woman with a torch.
From her beacon-hand
glows world-wide welcome.
Give me your tired, your poor, your huddld masses
yearning to breathe free,
the wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these,
the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door.”
– Emma Lazarus
