There is that in the glance of a flower which may at times control the greatest of creation's braggart lords.

You know rock stardom... I have a hard time discussing that because I don't really accept it. It's not really that tangible.

I know that if the peace movement takes its message boldly to the Negro people a powerful force can be secured in pursuit of the greatest goal of all mankind. And the same is true of labor and the great democratic sections of our population.
