A Good Many Things Go Around In

I Outlived The Bastards.

You Will Expect Me To Discuss The Late Election. Well, As Nearly As I Can Learn, We Did Not Have Enough Votes On Our Side.

The Priceless Treasure Of Boyhood Is His Endless Enthusiasm, His High Store Of Idealism, His Affections And His Hopes. When We Preserve These, We Have Made Men. We Have Made Citizens And We Have Made Americans.

You Convey Too Great A Compliment When You Say That I Have Earned The Right To The Presidential Nomination. No Man Can Establish Such An Obligation Upon Any Part Of The American People. My Country Owes Me No Debt. It Gave Me, As It Gives Every Boy And Girl, A Chance. It Gave Me Schooling, Independence Of Action, Opportunity For Service And Honor. In No Other Land Could A Boy From A Country Village, Without Inheritance Or Influential Friends, Look Forward With Unbounded Hope. My Whole Life Has Taught Me What America Means. I Am Indebted To My Country Beyond Any Human Power To Repay.

One Of The Primary Necessities Of The World For The Maintenance Of Peace Is The Elimination Of The Frictions Which Arise From Competitive Armament.
