I Hear America Singing

“I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear,”   

(WALT WHITMAN)

America is great again! Finally, there's the possibility to believe that greatness lies not in the size of an economy or in the excellence of armed forces. Listen! America is great again! It's true! In the end, he did it! Now it starts to sound not that crazy anymore, to believe that a nation's true greatness arrives from all those that write, think and sing.

Which thing makes England greater - a nuclear-powered submarine or the spiritual fleet of Shakespeare's plays? And what about Russia, is an arsenal of hypersonic missiles more significant to its global relevance than Tchaikovsky compositions?

Afar I hear Virgil words echoing truer than never, “Mens Agitat Molem”. With dreams and ideas, it's the mind that moves the matter.
