Speech at Worthington, Minnesota

In such a fantastic and dangerous world—we will not find answers in old dogmas, by repeating outworn slogans, or fighting on ancient battlegrounds against fading enemies long after the real struggle has moved on. We ourselves must change to master change. We must rethink all our old ideas and beliefs before they capture and destroy us. And for those answers America must look to its young people, the children of this time of change. And we will look especially to that privileged minority of educated men who are the students of America.
