The Man Of Thought Who Will Not

My Own View Is That Taping Of Conversations For Historical Purposes Was A Bad Decision On The Part Of All The Presidents. I Don't Think Kennedy Should Have Done It. I Don't Think Johnson Should Have Done It, And I Don't Think We Should Have Done It.

Maybe New York Shouldn't Survive. Maybe It Should Go Through A Cycle Of Destruction.

Let Us Build A Structure Of Peace In The World In Which The Weak Are As Safe As The Strong — In Which Each Respects The Right Of The Other To Live By A Different System — In Which Those Who Would Influence Others Will Do So By The Strength Of Their Ideas, And Not By The Force Of Their Arms. Let Us Accept That High Responsibility Not As A Burden, But Gladly — Gladly Because The Chance To Build Such A Peace Is The Noblest Endeavor In Which A Nation Can Engage.

We Will Establish A New System That Makes High-quality Health Care Available To Every American In A Dignified Manner And At A Price He Can Afford.

I'm Not A Crook. I've Earned Everything I've Got.
