The Gettysburg Address
64Watch it awake.
Two minutes at a cemetery, and he hands the living a debt instead of a battle story.
The review
Two minutes, if you don't pad it. Lincoln is at a cemetery after a battle, the living standing among the dead. He does not narrate the battle. The dead have already consecrated the ground, he says, and the living owe them a government that does not perish. I'm not putting extra words in his mouth, and I won't dress the fight for the table.
You could read the whole thing tonight, out loud. The debt is the speech. Start on the maneuvers and you've already left him. What he puts on the living is that government, the one that is not supposed to perish. Short enough that nobody here gets to know it only from a poster in a hallway.
