In A Thousand Unseen Ways We Have

If Government Is To Serve Any Purpose It Is To Do For Others What They Are Unable To Do For Themselves.

To Sustain An Environment Suitable For Man, We Must Fight On A Thousand Battlegrounds. Despite All Of Our Wealth And Knowledge, We Cannot Create A Redwood Forest, A Wild River, Or A Gleaming Seashore.

I Dont Believe In Labels. I Want To Do The Best I Can, All The Time. I Want To Be Progressive Without Getting Both Feet Off The Ground At The Same Time. I Want To Be Prudent Without Having My Mind Closed To Anything That Is New Or Different. I Have Often Said That I Was Proud That I Was A Free Man First And An American Second, And A Public Servant Third And A Democrat Fourth, In That Order, And I Guess As A Democrat, If I Had To Takeplace A Label On Myself, I Would Want To Be A Progressive Who Is Prudent.

The Last Thing I Wanted To Do Was To Be A Wartime President.

As We Maintain The Vigil Of Peace, We Must Remember That Justice Is A Vigil, Too - A Vigil We Must Keep In Our Own Streets And Schools And Among The Lives Of All Our People - So That Those Who Died Here On Their Native Soil Shall Not Have Died In Vain.
