Ronald Reagan: “If this bill were to reach the President's desk, his senior advisers would recommend its disapproval.”

We must and will dedicate ourselves as a Nation to continue this effort, and to stand in solidarity with those who resist, until the blessings of democracy, freedom, and respect for human dignity are assured throughout the world.

Tyranny fails. Freedom works.

Each of us can give young people the good example of reading ourselves.

Let us always take with us the spirit of vision, skill, and excellence.
