Ted Sorensen - the American University address in the summer of 1963 is considered one of President Kennedy's best speeches. It occurred after the eye-opening terror of the Cuban misssile crisis. Kruschev said it was the best speech by any American president since FDR. He let it play on Russian radio uncensored. It was written by Ted Sorensen

So let us not be blind to our differences, but let us also direct attention to our common interests and the means by which those differences can be resolved. And if we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity. For in the final analysis, our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this small planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children's futures. And we are all mortal.
