The phrase "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free" is part of a Sonnet titled "The New Colossus" written by Emma Lazarus in 1883. This poem is inscribed on a plaque at the base of the Statue of Liberty, symbolizing hope and refuge for immigrants arriving in America. The line reflects the welcoming spirit of the United States towards those seeking a better life.
