"It was nearly 10 years ago that a bright September day was darkened by the worst attack on the American people in our history. The images of 9/11 are seared into our memory...The worst images are those that were unseen to the world. The empty seat at the dinner table. Children forced to grow up without a mother or father. Parents that would never know the feeling of a child's embrace...September 11, 2001, in our time of grief, the American people came together. We offered our neighbors a hand, and the wounded our blood....We were united as one American family...."

-President Barack Obama
