It is, I believe, the greatest generation any society has ever produced.

The response to 'The Greatest Generation' and the books that followed has been one of the most satisfying experiences of my life.

The greatest generation was formed first by the Great Depression. They shared everything - meals, jobs, clothing.

I believe the destiny of your generation - and your nation - is a rendezvous with excellence.

I believe the United States is the greatest country on Earth. I really do.

Well I believe in the desirability of an optimal society.
