But as a philosopher said, one day after mastering the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, after all the scientific and technological achievements, we shall harness for God the energies of love. And then, for the second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered fire.

If a young person has any idealism at all, it's strongest about the time he finishes college.

I never ride just to ride. I ride to catch a fox. I play baseball to make the team.

It is well to be prepared for life as it is, but it is better to be prepared to make life better than it is.

Any idealist who tries to join the Peace Corps must realize he is not going to change the world overnight.
