Like Many Things In Our National Life,

People In Places Many Of Us Never Heard Of, Whose Names We Can't Pronounce Or Even Spell, Are Speaking Up For Themselves. They Speak In Languages We Once Classified As Exotic But Whose Mastery Is Now Essential For Our Diplomats And Businessmen. But What They Say Is Very Much The Same The World Over. They Want A Decent Standard Of Living. They Want Human Dignity And A Voice In Their Own Futures. They Want Their Children To Grow Up Strong And Healthy And Free.

If I Believe In Something, I Will Fight For It, With All I Have. But I Do Not Demand All Or Nothing. I Would Rather Get Something Than Nothing.

The Pursuit Of Peace Resembles The Building Of A Great Cathedral. It Is The Work Of A Generation. In Concept It Requires A Mater-architect; In Execution, The Labors Of Many.
