Eisenhower: “So among other things, keep a grin on your face.”

We must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex.

Our unity as a nation is sustained by free communication of thought and by easy transportation of people and goods.

For over six decades we have worked together to create and maintain strong democratic institutions.

We shall eventually have a world in which all men are brothers, and in which the outstretched hand is not that of a tyrant, but the hand of friendship.
