Hubert H. Humphrey
Though everyone has an equal right to speak, not all have earned an equal right to be taken seriously.
Hubert H. Humphrey
Like many things in our national life, we miscalculated. We overestimated our ability to control events, which is one of the great dangers of a great power. Power tends to be a substitute for judgment and wisdom.
