“A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame Is the imprisoned lightning” -- That’s what Emma Lazarus said in her 1883 poem “The New Colossus.” Emma wrote the poem for an auction that raised money for the pedestal of the new Statue of Liberty. In the sonnet, a woman statue cries out from “silent lips,” welcoming the world’s “tired…poor, ...huddled masses” to her land. The poem now graces Lady Liberty herself.
