Patriot Day was signed into law on December 18, 2001 as a day to remember the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. You're encouraged to fly your flag at half-staff and observe a moment of silence to remember the people who lost their lives, and to honor the sacrifices of the firefighters, rescue and law enforcement personnel, military service members, and other citizens.
When I despair, I remember that all through history, the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think of this. Always.
- Mahatma Gandhi (1869-1948)
