I don't want nothin'-- but to do this job squarely, to get out of this scrape, to go off somewhere in the sunshine and to see if I can slip back into my old self and see the world sane again.

Yet I'm immensely proud that I have had the chance to do some good--to keep our record straight--as far as I can, and to be of what service I can to these heroic people.
Out of it all, one conviction and one purpose grows and becomes clearer.

The world isn't yet half-organized.

In the United States we've lived in a good deal of a fool's paradise.

The world isn't half so safe a place as we supposed.
