If THIS nation is to be wise as well as strong, if we are
to achieve our destiny, then we need more new ideas for more wise men
reading more good books in more public libraries. These libraries
should be open to all except the censor. We must know all the facts and
hear all the alternatives and listen to all the criticisms. Let us
welcome controversial books and controversial authors. For the Bill of
Rights is the guardian of our security as well as our history.
John F. Kennedy
