I go to the mountain side
of the house to cut saplings,
and clear a view to snow
on the mountain. But when I look up,
saw in hand, I see a nest clutched in
the uppermost branches.
I don’t cut that one.
I don’t cut the others either.
Suddenly, in every tree,
an unseen nest
where a mountain
would be.

Inaugural Address
by John F. Kennedy, January 20, 1961 (excerpt)
Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans-born in this
century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing
of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.
Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose
any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty.
This much we pledge-and more.
To those old allies whose cultural and spiritual origins we share, we pledge the loyalty of faithful friends. United there is little we cannot do in a host
of cooperative ventures. Divided there is little we can do—for we dare not meet a powerful challenge at odds and split asunder.

Those who came before us made certain that this country rode the first waves of the industrial revolution, the first waves of modern invention, and the first wave of nuclear power, and this generation does not intend to founder in the backwash of the coming age of space. We mean to be a part of it--we mean to lead it. For the eyes of the world now look into space, to the moon and to the planets beyond. We have vowed that we shall not see it governed by a hostile flag of conquest, but by a banner of freedom and peace. We have vowed that we shall not see space filled with weapons of mass destruction, but with instruments of knowledge and understanding.

The blank page. For many writers, this is one of the most intimidating things they must encounter. Many think to themselves: How can I possibly fit everything I want to say onto this page? Will I be able to connect with my audience? or How do I focus? The one question that every writer asks, however, is Where do I start?

Finding a starting point is difficult. It can even be overwhelming. In fact, many writers get anxious and nervous when they begin writing. Many famous authors have had to experience being nervous about writing. Ernest Hemingway's novel The Sun Also Rises takes place during World War I.

One way to overcome this anxiousness is to think about the first sentence as opposed to the final draft. Think of it as building a house. Writing is put together in a similar way—word by word and then sentence by sentence. Another way to get over the nervousness of a blank page is to write anything down. Even if your writing doesn't make sense, this is a good exercise to get you started in the act of writing. Even writing your name over and over at least gets you into the act of writing instead of sitting around waiting for the ideas to come to you. Also, it gets rid of your nervous energy. Writing a word over and over on a chalkboard is one way some teachers make students behave. In addition, another way to get over the first step of writing is to talk. Talk to friends, parents, or whoever will listen. Ask them questions about what they think about certain subjects. When it's time to write, you'll find that those ideas and talks will come back to you.
