Thomas Jefferson once said that all men are created equal, a phrase that the Yankees and the distaff of the Executive branch in Washington are fond of hurling at us..... We know all men are not created equal in the sense some people would have us believe -- some people are smarter than others, some people have more opportunity because they're born with it, some men make more money than others, some ladies make better cakes than others -- some people are born gifted beyond the normal scope of most men
But there is one way in this country in which all men are created equal -- there is one human institution which makes a pauper the equal of a Rockefeller, a stupid man the equal of an Einstein, and the ignorant man the equal of any college president. That institution, gentlemen, is a court

"چقدر فروپاشی دیوار برلین شورانگیز بود. دیواری که به تقاص گناه بشر، از یک جای زمین خود به خود روییده بود و آمده بود بالا، مثل بینی پینوکیو، مثل غده چرکی بزرگی که ناگهان در صورت بعضی آدم ها می زند بیرون، و وقتی جراحی شود جاش می ماند. بر آمده بود که بشریت را به دو قسمت تقسیم کند."
