So, I'm working with a journal called "VITAL SPEECHES OF THE DAY" that comes out twice a month and reprints speeches from the past couple of weeks it deems important...I came across the 2001:Oct.1 issue (first published after 9/11) and flipped through it...some of the speeches are really great (like Tony Blair's and Pervez Musharraf's) and some are incredibly lame (Jean Chretien's, George W. Bush's)...
but the one that caught my eye was Alan Greenspan's. Here's how it begins:
"I would like to begin my remarks this morning by noting how deeply saddened I and my Federal Reserve colleagues are that so many talented and productive people from so many walks of life were lost or irreparably harmed last week..."
emphasis MINE.
