Let us begin by committing ourselves to the truth to see it like it is, and tell it like it is, to find the truth, to speak the truth, and to live the truth.
Richard M. Nixon
The average American is just like the child in the family. You give him some responsibility and he is going to amount to something. He is going to do something.
