“I once told you that I am not a saint, and I hope never to see the day that I cannot admit having made a mistake. So I will close with another confession. Frequently, along the tortuous road of recent months from this chamber to the Presidents House, I protested that I was my own man. Now I realize that I was wrong. I am your man, for it was your carefully weighed confirmation that changed my occupation. The truth is I am the peoples man, for you acted in their name, and I accepted and began my new and solemn trust with a promise to serve all the people and do the best that I can for America.” PeopleMenMadeI CanAmericaHouseNamesPresidentRealizingMy OwnMistakeChangedMonthsPromiseTruth IsSaintAcceptedOccupationConfessionDo The BestChamberSolemnMade A MistakeConfirmation Book:Gerald R.

“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

“It's really important, obviously, for people to realize that it is a very small percentage, only 1 percent of our total economy, of our total budget, and I think that's important for people to know.
