What a strange creature man is that he fouls his own nest.

Baseball is great because anything can happen through the ninth inning.

A riot is a spontaneous outburst. A war is subject to advance planning.

In a flat choice between smoke and jobs, we're for jobs... But just keep me out of trouble on environmental issues.

Well, I'm not a crook.

'Environment' is not an abstract concern, or simply a matter of aesthetics, or of personal taste - although it can and should involve these as well. Man is shaped to a great extent by his surroundings. Our physical nature, our mental health, our culture and institutions, our opportunities for challenge and fulfillment, our very survival - all of these are directly related to and affected by the environment in which we live. They depend upon the continued healthy functioning of the natural systems of the Earth.

The peace we seek in the world is not the flimsy peace which is merely an interlude between wars, but a peace which can endure for generations to come. It is important that we understand both the necessity and the limitations of America's role in maintaining that peace. Unless we in America work to preserve the peace, there will be no peace. Unless we in America work to preserve freedom, there will be no freedom.
