The fact that the talk may be boring or turgid or uninspiring should not cause us to forget the fact that it is preferable to war. ↗

Look at the United States today. We have made mistakes in the past. We have had shortcomings. We shall make mistakes in the future and fall short of our own best hopes. ↗
