1. What is the meaning of the quotation from his former teacher?
Things changes, but truth, or basic idea that we have been taught should not change.
2. What does this quotation mean: “We reject the prospect of failure or mediocrity or an inferior quality of life for any person.”
No one should suffer from poverty, failure, or lack of opportunity.
3. What does the following quotation mean: “We will not behave in foreign places so as to violate our rules and standards here at home, for we know that the trust which our Nation earns is essential to our strength.”
We should not go to foreign countries an treat people worse than we would treat Americans. America can only remain strong if other countries believe that we do what we say.
