Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

Get the Agressive studying mug.A non-literal term, either mental or spoken. Only used for a single man that implies an emotional and physical connection. Used upon seeing a lady during a situation (short or long term) in which you cannot make immediate contact with a woman. An unfinished desire to talk to her, or a desire to demonstrate your attraction to her - such as in a workplace environment, a passing in a store, mall, bus, a business meeting, subway, freeway, or any other qwik and/or continuous passing environment, or perhaps even on TV.
{ie. 7 of 9 ... Star Trek } Call ME or email me Jeri Ryan! I love you!
Denotes the desire to be able to make a connection and relationship with a woman who has been unavailable over a period of time or just for a minute. Could be a teacher or just a girl you know, or don't really know, or someone who always boards the bus at 8'th street and gets off at 10'th street.
A wish to have intimate, close coversation/meeting. An urge to have a more meaningful communication/connection with someone not currently available or approachable. Also means a sexual reference for wanting to have more than just sex with that person. Thugs can skip the part about "to have more than just" part above.
An inward emotion and/or thought that is based on sight and impression of what you believe this person to be. The number one sign of "get her home address" syndrome is when you first saw her you said "GHHA" inside your head right at the same time your knees went weak! And never new it meant
