What follows is the conclusion of the eulogy Ted Kennedy gave for his brother Robert on June 8, 1968, which features much of a speech RFK gave in South Africa in 1966; Ted was speaking about Bobby with these words, but given his 46-year career in the U.S. Senate, he might as well have been speaking about himself as well (a truly strange circumstance that the 40th anniversary of Bobby's assassination will be observed soon in the wake of this tragic news - the most memorable excerpt of this wonderful reflection occurs at about 6:20 when Ted's voice starts to give a bit).
