"What kind of peace do I mean and what kind of a peace do we seek? Not a Pax Americana enforced on the world by American weapons of war. Not the peace of the grave or the security of the slave. I am talking about genuine peace, the kind of peace that makes life on earth worth living, and the kind that enables men and nations to grow, and to hope, and build a better life for their children—not merely peace for Americans but peace for all men and women, not merely peace in our time but peace in all time."

Jack's Message to Americans - READ!

"There is so much ignorance in America now. People are afraid; of what, they know not. They don't read enough. Americans need to read. Please stay away from the nonsense on the television and video games. Take a book out at the library and read. Read anything really, but learning about the history of your nation is the first step toward real progress. When people know their own history, they understand the decisions of their leaders."
