It is right that Americans are always improving. It is not only right,
it is necessary. From need comes action. There is still so much to be
done. We must increase the independence of the individual and the
opportunity of all Americans to attain their full potential. We must
ensure each citizen's right to privacy. We must create a more beautiful
America, making human works conform to the harmony of nature. We must
develop a safer society, so ordered that happiness may be pursued
without fear of crime or manmade hazards. We must build a more stable
international order, politically, economically, and legally. We must
match the great breakthroughs of the past century by improving health
and conquering disease. We must continue to unlock the secrets of the
universe beyond our planet as well as within ourselves. We must work to
enrich the quality of American life at work, at play, and in our homes.
The American adventure began here with a firm reliance on the protection
of Divine Providence. It continues in a common conviction that the
source of our blessings is a loving God, in whom we trust.
