“The effort to improve the conditions of man, however, is not a task for the few. It is the task of all nations-acting alone, acting in groups, acting in the United Nations, for plague and pestilence, plunder and pollution, the hazards of nature and the hunger of children are the foes of every nation. The earth, the sea and the air are the concern of every nation.

“John Steinbeck's 'The Grapes of Wrath' also speaks urgently to today's concerns: the cratered trail of dreams for Mexican immigrants seeking a promised land in the Western [United States]; the perfidy of banks in foreclosing on poor people's homes; and the insurgent urge of the book's protagonist, Tom Joad, to speak truth to police power. 'Wherever there's a cop beatin' up a guy,' Tom promises, 'I'll be there.' In Salinas, Calif., Ferguson, Mo., or Staten Island, N.Y., Tom's truth goes marching on.” PeopleBookStatesHomeDreamTodayGuySpeakPoorUnitedUnited StatesLandPromiseConcernPoliceWesternSeekingIslandsUrgesImmigrantsTomsCopPoor PeopleTrailsWrathMexicanGrapesSpeak The TruthProtagonistsInsurgentPromised LandFergusonPolice PowerPerfidyMarching On Author:Richard Corliss

“One of the greatest concerns that I had when I became President was the vast array of nuclear weapons in the arsenals of the United States and the Soviet Union and a few other countries, and also the great proliferation of conventional weapons, non-nuclear weapons, particularly as a tremendous burden on the economies of developing or very poor countries.” CountryStatesPresidentPoorUnitedUnited StatesEconomyWeaponsConcernUnionsBurdenNuclearDevelopingSovietNuclear WeaponsConventionalOther CountriesSoviet UnionArsenalProliferationPoor Countries Author:Jimmy Carter
“The government of the United States, under Lyndon Johnson, proposes to concern itself over the quality of American life. And this is something very new in the political theory of free nations. The quality of life has heretofore depended on the quality of the human beings who gave tone to that life, and they were its priests and its poets, not its bureaucrats.” HumansStatesGovernmentPoliticalNationsHuman BeingsUnitedQualityUnited StatesPoetTheoryConcernTonePriestsProposeQuality Of LifeJohnsonBureaucratsAmerican LifePolitical Theory Author:William F.
