Altri tempi

Da un articolo dello storico Arthur Schlesinger Jr. apparso oggi sul Los Angeles Times:

"We must face the fact that the United States is neither omnipotent nor omniscient -- that we are only 6% of the world's population -- that we cannot impose our will upon the other 94% of mankind -- that we cannot right every wrong or reverse each adversity -- and that therefore there cannot be an American solution to every world problem."

President John F. Kennedy
