I only follow one party: the Vietnamese party.

The Vietnamese people deeply love independence, freedom and peace. But in the face of United States aggression they have risen up, united as one man.

The object of my relationship with Vietnam has been to heal the wounds that exist, particularly among our veterans, and to move forward with a positive relationship,... Apparently some in the Vietnamese government don't want to do that and that's their decision.

It was patriotism, not communism, that inspired me.

Nothing is more precious than independence and liberty.

Write in such a way as that you can be readily understood by both the young and the old, by men as well as women, even by children.
