For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.

I speak to everyone in the same way, whether he is the garbage man or the president of the university. It is impossible to struggle for civil rights, equal rights for blacks, without including whites. Because equal rights, fair play, justice, are all like the air: we all have it, or none of us has it. That is the truth of it. These men ask for just the same thing, fairness, and fairness only. This, so far as in my power, they, and all others, shall have. Nature has never read the Declaration of Independence. It continues to make us unequal. Won't it be wonderful when black history and native American history and Jewish history and all of U.S. history is taught from one book. Just U.S. history. Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery. There is no such thing as part freedom. At the end of the game, the king and the pawn go back in the same box. He who seeks equality amongst unequals seeks the absurd. The smallest minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities.
