We must not become the new puritans and reject our society. We must address and master the future together. It can be done if we restore the belief that we share a sense of national community, that we share a common national endeavor. It can be done.

  • -- Barbara Jordan 芭芭拉·乔丹

我们决不能成为新的清教徒,拒绝我们的社会。我们必须共同应对和把握未来。如果我们恢复这样一种信念,即我们拥有共同的国家共同体意识,我们拥有共同的国家努力,我们就能做到这一点。这是可以做到的。
