Now I Can Go Back To Being

Every Time You Stand Up For An Ideal, You Send Forth A Tiny Ripple Of Hope.

Prejudice Exists And Probably Will Continue To `but We Have Tried To Make Progress And We Are Making Progress. We Are Not Going To Accept The Status Quo.'

The Future Does Not Belong To Those Who Are Content With Today, Apathetic Toward Common Problems And Their Fellow Man Alike, Timid And Fearful In The Face Of Bold Projects And New Ideas. Rather, It Will Belong To Those Who Can Blend Passion, Reason And Courage In A Personal Commitment To The Great Enterprises And Ideals Of American Society.

In Your Hands Lies The Future Of Your World And The Fulfilment Of The Best Qualities Of Your Own Spirit.

We Must Recognize The Full Human Equality Of All Our People - Before God, Before The Law, And In The Councils Of Government. We Must Do This Not Because It Is Economically Advantageous - Although It Is; Not Because The Laws Of God And Man Command It - Although They Do Command It; Not Because People In Other Lands Wish It So. We Must Do It For The Single And Fundamental Reason That It Is The Right Thing To Do.
