I'm an optimistic guy.
I'm one of those big dreamers.
I'm one of those kids with that annoying imagination.
John Glenn's life will long be remembered for his time in space,
his courage,
and his service to all Americans.
I had a very, very interesting childhood,
but, oh my, education was the primary focus in our family.
Let me do it.
You tell me when you want it and where you want it to land,
and I'll do it backwards and tell you when to take off.
Everything was so new
the whole idea of going into space was new and daring.
There were no textbooks,
so we had to write them.
I counted everything.
I counted the steps to the road,
the steps up to church,
the number of dishes and silverware I washed...
anything that could be counted,
I did.
Reading about nature is fine,

I had no future with the Dodgers,
because I was too closely identified with Branch Rickey.
After the club was taken over by Walter O'Malley,

the greatest human being I had ever known.

One of them was
the National Republican Convention in San Francisco,
which produced the greatest disaster
the Republican Party has ever known
Nominee Barry Goldwater.
I cannot possibly believe that
I have it made while so many black brothers and sisters are hungry,
inadequately housed, insufficiently clothed,
denied their dignity as they live in slums or barely exist on welfare.
My problem was my inability to spend much time at home.
I thought my family was secure,
so I went running around everyplace else.
I guess I had more of an effect on other people's kids
than I did my own.
My protest about the post exchange seating bore some results.
More seats were allocated for blacks,
but there were still separate sections for blacks and for whites.
At least I had made my men realize
that something could be accomplished by speaking out,
and I hoped they would be less resigned to unjust conditions.
