The country will reject them again, and embrace the creed that brought it greatness before. But only if liberals remember what that means. It means an unyielding hostility to totalitarianism--and a recognition that defeating it requires bringing hope to the bleakest corners of the globe. And it means understanding that democracy begins at home, in a nation that does not merely preach about justice, but becomes more just itself.".

In 2021, Nevada's largest international airport was renamed in honor of this book's author. From Wikipedia: "The airport is named after U.S. Senator Harry Reid, who represented Nevada in the Senate from 1987 to 2017. Between 1968 and December 14, 2021, the airport was called McCarran International Airport; before 1968, it was named McCarran Field after U.S. Senator Pat McCarran, who represented Nevada from 1933 to 1954 The airport was officially renamed Harry Reid International Airport on December 14, 2021. Reid, who was terminally ill, did not attend the renaming ceremony in person. Two weeks after the airport was renamed, Reid died at 82 years of age.". SIGNED by the AUTHOR.
