Schwierigkeiten beim Zeigen der Wahrheit?

Freedom includes the right to say what others may object to and resent... The essence of citizenship is to be tolerant of strong and provocative words.

I&#39;ve lived history. I&#39;ve made history, and I know I&#39;ll have my place in history. That&#39;s not egoism.

Freedom is the right to be wrong, not the right to do wrong.

Yes, that&#39;s it, the hippies. Well, they&#39;ve found an answer to the age-old problem of living without working. But I don&#39;t find them as unattractive... no, don&#39;t say that... I don&#39;t find them as unique as some people do. They&#39;re a manifestation of a passing fad.

I never think of memoirs. I&#39;m still making history.
