  • Coronation speech

    When I spoke to you last, at Christmas, I asked you all, whatever your religion, to pray for me on the day of my Coronation — to pray that God would give me wisdom and strength to carry out the promises that I should then be making. Throughout this memorable day I have been uplifted…

  • The Chance for Peace

    DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER President Bryan, distinguished guests of this Association, and ladies and gentlemen: I am happy to be here. I say this and I mean it very sincerely for a number of reasons. Not the least of these is the number of friends I am honored to count among you. Over the years we…

  • La hora de los pueblos

    Compañeros: Desde hace tiempo vengo diciendo que está llegando la hora de los pueblos. Y me siento inmensamente feliz frente a esta grandiosa asamblea, porque observo que este pueblo es digno de esa hora y porque veo que este pueblo está capacitado para realizar lo que esa hora impone a los países.

  • First Inaugural Address

    DWIGHT D.

  • Checkers speech

    My Fellow Americans, I come before you tonight as a candidate for the Vice-presidency and as a man whose honesty and integrity has been questioned.

  • Une Europe Federée

  • Il trattato della CECA

    ALCIDE DE GASPERI …Io debbo respingere l’accusa che ci si fa di aver deciso in questa materia semplicemente da un punto di vista politico generale. Avrei il diritto di rovesciare l’accusa e di dire che l’opposizione non trova ragione fondamentale contro questo progetto se non nella sua concezione ge­nerale politica. E se altra fosse la…

  • Il futuro dell’Europa

    ALCIDE DE GASPERI Non vi parlerò dell’Italia, ma dell’Europa e non dell’Europa di ieri e di oggi, ma dell’Europa di domani, di quell’Europa che vogliamo ideare, preparare e costruire. Che cosa s’intende fare quando si parla di una Federazione europea? Ecco all’ingrosso di che si tratta: di una specie di grande Svizzera, che comprende italiani,…

  • Speech on Korean War

    In the simplest terms, what we are doing in Korea is this: We are trying to prevent a third world war. I think most people in this country recognized that fact last June.
