I carried it (a revolver) religiously and during the summer I asked a friend, a man who had been one of Franklin's bodyguards in New York State, to give me some practice in target shooting so that if the need arose I would know how to use the gun.

If you have any interests you can gain a wider audience for those interests while the goldfish bowl is yours!

I have complete faith in the American people's ability if they know and if they have leadership.

We face the future fortified with the lessons we have learned from the past. It is today that we must create the world of the future.

We can no longer oversimplify. We can no longer build lazy and false stereotypes: Americans are like this, Russians are like that, a Jew behaves in such a way, a Negro thinks in a different way. The lazy generalities - 'You know how women are ... Isn't that just like a man?' The world cannot be understood from a single point of view.

So, after all, we are but puppets, creatures of our fate, not commanding it but being molded by it.

I'm intensely anxious to preserve the freedom that gives you the right to think and to act and to talk as you please. That I think is essential to happiness and the life of the people.
