“But change would not mean rejection of the past. Like a tree growing strong through the
seasons, rooted in the Earth and drawing life from the Sun, so, too, positive change must be rooted in traditional values in the land, in culture, in family and communityand it must take its life from the
eternal things, from the source of all life, which is faith. Such change will lead to new understandings, new opportunities, to a broader future in which the tradition is not supplanted but finds its full flowering. That is the future beckoning to your generation.”
-Ronald Reagan
