ციტატა
"... საერთო ღირებულებები უფრო მნიშვნელოვანია ვიდრე საერთო საზღვრები. თუ ჩვენ განვაგრძობთ "დასავლეთის" ან "ალიანსის" წმინდა გეოგრაფიულ მცნებად განსაზღვრას, მაშინ ალიანსი განაგრძობს ეროზიას. მაგრამ თუ ჩვენ დასავლეთს განვსაზღვრავთ როგორც ღირებულებების, ინსტიტუტების და ერთად ქმედების სურვილის ერთიანობას, მაშინ ჩვენ აღვადგენთ თავისუფლების მნიშვნელოვან ბასტიონს და მას ვაქცევთ ჩვენი საუკუნის ისეთივე პივოტურ ერთეულად, როგორსაც იგი წარმოადგენდა გასულ საუკუნეში."
