“The Great Society is a place where every child can find knowledge to enrich his mind and to enlarge his talents. It is a place where the city of man serves not only the needs of the body and the demands of commerce but the desire for beauty and the hunger for community. It is a place where men are more concerned with the quality of their goals than the quantity of their goods.” MenNeedsMindChildrenBodyDesireGoalPresidentCommunityCitiesQualityBeautyTalentDemandConcernedHungerPresidentialGoodsQuantityCommerceGreat Society Author:Lyndon B.

“We learn that Comrade [President of South Africa Nelson] Mandela has announced in a speech that he hopes for a bright future in South Africa for ‘liberty’ and ‘equality.’ Anyone who has thought about it realizes that liberty and equality are antithetical concepts. You can have one, or you can have the other, but you certainly cannot have both. As to that, either concept is a rather futile goal. Equality is biologically impossible, and liberty is only obtainable in homogeneous populations very thinly spread.” GoalPresidentRealizingLibertyImpossibleSpeechConceptsSouthPopulationSpreadSouth AfricaComradeNelsonBright FutureHomogeneousLiberty And Equality Author:Jeff Cooper
