“And that, I think, was the handle--that sense of inevitable victory over the forces of Old and Evil. Not in any mean or military sense; we didn't need that. Our energy would simply prevail. There was no point in fighting--on our side or theirs. We had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave.

“I was not proud of what I had learned but I never doubted that it was worth knowing.”

“Of all the men that have run for president in the twentieth century, only George McGovern truly understood what a monument America could be to the human race.”

“So let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire.”
