More From Ronald Reagan

The young mouse's eyes snapped open, clear and bright. he swung the ancient sword high and struck at the giant adder. he struck for redwall! he struck against evil! he struck for martin! he struck for log-a-log and his shrews! he struck for dead guosim! he struck as methuselah would have wanted him to! he struck against cluny the scourge and tyranny! he struck out against captain snow's ridicule! he struck for the world of light and freedom! he struck until his paws ached and the sword fell from them!

Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. if we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them. we should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not to tolerate the intolerant.

Greek architecture taught me that the column is where the light is not, and the space between is where the light is. it is a matter of no-light, light, no-light, light. a column and a column brings light between them. to make a column which grows out of the wall and which makes its own rhythm of no-light, light, no-light, light: that is the marvel of the artist.

The lack of opportunity is ever the excuse of a weak, vacillating mind. opportunities! every life is full of them. every newspaper article is an opportunity. every client is an opportunity. every sermon is an opportunity. every business transaction is an opportunity, an opportunity to be polite, an opportunity to be manly, an opportunity to be honest, an opportunity to make friends.

No one can learn tolerance in a climate of irresponsibility, which does not produce democracy. the act of tolerating requires a climate in which limits may be established, in which there are principles to be respected. that is why tolerance is not coexistence with the intolerable. under an authoritarian regime, in which authority is abused, or a permissive one, in which freedom is not limited, one can hardly learn tolerance. tolerance requires respect, discipline, and ethics.

Migration is an opportunity, not a problem. and in the sense that it is an opportunity, it goes on to a bilateral agreement, between mexico and the us, the us and the dominican republic, whatever you wish, and it has to be a multilateral, international event. i am in favor of an international union of migrant workers that really takes on the problems that affect europe, with the migrants coming from africa, and the us with the migrants coming from latin america. it has to be considered an international question, with international solutions, and with no problems national or international.

Latin, as we all know, ultimately broke down into spanish, italian, french, and so on. one wonders whether there will be an imperial parallel with english breaking down into, shall we say, north american, european, australian, and so on. on the other hand, there is this immense, inward-driving influence of radio and television that is bringing us all back together. one could say it's a fight between the two: a fight between regionalism and the standardization through communication.
