Route markers of Louisiana

1. ^ a b Louisiana.gov Culture

It is easy to bend with the wind and be weak,

Wrapped in silence when it would take courage
to speak,

State oath

To do nothing when crises demand that you act;

To prefer a delusion to unpleasant fact.

State pledge : I pledge allegiance to the ag of

the state of Louisiana and to the motto for which it
stands: A state, under God, united in purpose and
ideals, condent that justice shall prevail for all of
those abiding here.

But the easy evasions that dreamers embrace

Are denied to a leader with problems to face.
He must cope with the world as he nds it, and
plan
To make each hard decision as well as he can.

LL 167, 1981

He can't hide from the truth or deny what is

real.

State poems

Though a lie might assuage all the fears people

feel.
For the truth is the truth, and no lie can prevail.

State judicial poem, written by Sylvia Davidson

Lott Buckley, and entitled, America, We The People":

In a world that is real, one must face truth or

fail. [6]
