Quote context

[...]

- What kind of a speech is that? Didn't you read it?

- We've existed since time began. We built the Pyramids, we saw Christ crucified, pulled the oars for Roman emperors,

- Sailed the boats for Columbus, retreated from Moscow with Napoleon, and froze with Washington at Valley Forge.

- Yes, sir, we've been in there dodging left hooks since before History began to walk.

- In our struggle for freedom we've hit the canvas many a time, but we always bounce back because we're the people and we're tough.

(applause in the hall) (2)

- They've started a lot of talk about free people going soft, that we can't take it. That's a lot of hooey!

- Free people can beat the world at anything from war to tiddlywinks if we all pull in the same direction.

(applause in the hall) (3)

- I know a lot of you are saying: What can I do? I'm just a little punk. I don't count.
