3. We need to cry as much as we need to cry.

We lost a true liberal lion. Cry it out everyone!

4. Me too.

I have this lump in my throat that won't go away. It's him. It's the passing of an era. It's the rekindling of so much hope that has gone unfulfilled for so long.

10. I also have this lump in my throat...

I honestly thought this day would never come. I have never ever felt so alone in my whole life. I feel like a part of me has died.

8. As I drove from the viewing in Boston yesterday, back to the Hudson Valley in NY

Each "unused" text sign on the Mass Pike read, "Thanks Ted from the people of Mass."

Thanks Ted, from WE THE PEOPLE of the United States of America.
A truer patriot, this country has not seen in quite a long time.
