...screens, there lie potential forms of consciousness entirely different. No account of the universe in its totality can be final which leaves these other forms of consciousness quite disregarded. They may determine attitudes though they cannot furnish formulas, and open a region though they fail to give a map...
Last week's Russian journey is perhaps De Gaulle's grandest gesture-and quite likely his most valuable. Since 1945, when he was declared odd man out at Yalta by Churchill, Roosevelt and Stalin, De Gaulle has put France back on the map as a major world power. He ended the debilitating war in Algeria and added a new dimension to Western handling of the "Third World"; he blew life into the Common Market, even if he chilled the aspirations of those who saw it as a way to political unity on the Continent.

...Gang. When a team fresh from Vung Tau in their black pajamas and black berets arrived in Binh Phuoc, an inland hamlet of rice and manioc farmers, they started from the ground up-and slowly-to win the confidence of the villagers.

Four years from now the John F. Kennedy Memorial Library will sit on the banks of the Charles across the street from Eliot House. Hundreds of thousands, possibly millions of visitors will pour through it during its first year. It will change the map of Cambridge drastically and it may also change the complexion of academic Harvard. For half of the $20 million raised from the public for the memorial will be given to the University on the endowment for the John F. Kennedy institute of Politics...
