"But the French president also described the rebuilding in the grandest terms, evoking universal themes of community, the preservation and propagation of culture, and the transcendence of the human spirit."
"Brothers and sisters, let us enter now into Notre-Dame, Laurent Ulrich, the archbishop of Paris, said before knocking on the cathedral doors."
"Notre-Dame tells us that our dreams, even the most audacious, are only possible through the will of each individual and the commitment of all, Mr. Macron said."
