Need I say more?
first of all-probably not?
secondly, so far ya got yourself a pretty vague(not vogue) superbar topic and
third, what in the gosh darn heck are ya getting at here sparky?
malice toward none sounds like ya been hangin with grasshopper(read-kung fu) and
charity for all sounds like ya had yourself a good year financially-good on ya.
other than that? might as well put this one in "nm" before mutation wakes up thinking it's something political and really facks it up...if it already isn't
Agree vogue!
...."With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations...."
A. Lincoln , Second Inaugural Address
Sunday March 4 1865
RS ...you did recognize the quote...didn't you?
Hint: This is inscribed on the wall of the North Chamber of the Lincoln Memorial
Certainly one of the 3-4 greatest speeches in American history.

Your comment made me reflect on this. Personally, I think his Gettyusburg Address was more compelling but that is a matter of opinion.
Other great American speeches include:
Reagan's challenge to Mr Gorbachev
I Have a Dream (I would also rank Letter from a Birmingham Jail but it wasn't a speech since he was locked up)
Blood, Toil, Tears, and Sweat (included as his mother was American)
Give me Liberty or give me Death
Hypocrisy of American Slavery
Gehrig's Farewell
Washington's Resignation
MacArthur's Final Role Call
Chief Joseph's Surrender
JFK Moon Challenge
Faulkner Nobel Speech
