1  THE WORLD WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER 
   President Bush Led a Worldwide Initiative to Remember 9/11 
   
   "For those of us who lived through these events, the only 
   marker we'll ever need is the tick of a clock at the 46th 
   minute of the eighth hour of the 11th day. We will remember 
   where we were and how we felt. We will remember the dead and 
   what we owe them. We will remember what we lost and what we 
   found." 
        - President George W. Bush, during the 9/11 remembrance 
          ceremony, 12/11/2001
