Quote context

[...]

- You're dead wrong. Little punks have always counted because in the long run the character of a country is the sum total of the character of it's little punks.

(applause in the hall) (4)

- But we've all got to get in there and pitch. We can't win the old ball game unless we have team work,

- And that's where every John Doe comes in.

- It's up to him to get together with his team mate, and your team mate, my friends, is the guy next door to you. Your neighbor, he's a terribly important guy.

- You're gonna need him and he's gonna need you, so look him up. If he's sick, call on him. If he's hungry, feed him. If he's out of a job, find him one.

- To most of you, your neighbor is a stranger. A guy with a barking dog and a high fence around him.

- You can't be a stranger to any guy that's on your own team.

- So tear down the fence that separates you. Tear it down and you'll tear down a lot of hates and prejudices.

- Tear down all the fences in the country and you'll really have teamwork.
