“The American conscience died with the Kennedys.”

“I was born an American; I will live an American; I shall die an American. ”

“I was born an American, I live like an American, I will die an American.”

“In the old Republican days the subject of slavery and of the saving of the Union made appeals to the consciences and liberty-loving instincts of the people.

They will break through this crust of sordidness and realize that those only keep their liberties who accord liberty to others.”
