Golda called him "my good friend John," and wished that "I had Mayor Lindsay's eloquence to tell what is in my heart tonight...
There is some question whether Brandt will make a good Chancellor. Reserved and thin-skinned, Brandt may find the perpetual pummeling that high office brings unbearable.

"Three training bouts to shake off the rust," said Ingo, "and I wouldn...
...categorized" as such a priori. One can not be immobilized by the thought that somewhere on the distant horizon may loom a possibility that might prove hazardous.
