We Come To Proclaim An End To The Petty Grievances And False Promises, The Recriminations And Worn-Out Dogmas

"Recall that earlier generations faced down fascism and communism not just with missiles and tanks, but with sturdy alliances and enduring convictions. They understood that our power alone cannot protect us, nor does it entitle us to do as we please. Instead, they knew that our power grows through its prudent use; our security emanates from the justness of our cause, the force of our example, the tempering qualities of humility and restraint."
— President Barack Hussein Obama
A wonderful excerpt from a dynamic speech. Oh, and I like the fact that you deliberately included his middle name.
