He states that just like you cannot tell when an old man stops breathing on his death bed‚ “As virtuous men pass mildly away / The breath goes now‚ and some say‚ No;” (1‚4) in that same way they should “…make no noise‚ / no tear-floods‚ nor sigh-tempests move;”(5-6).

There are empowering words at the base of the Statue of Liberty that state “Give me your tired‚ your poor‚ your huddled masses yearning to breathe free‚ the wretched refuse of your teeming shore” “Send these‚ the homeless‚ tempest-tossed to me‚ I lift my lamp beside the golden door!” These liberating words tell Americans to be a harbor for immigrants and the needy.

"Give me your tired‚ your poor‚ your huddled masses yearning to breathe free‚ the wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
