Summary

This quote suggests that communication can be achieved through two different mediums: words and art. While words convey thoughts and ideas from one person to another, art has the ability to transmit emotions and feelings. Words can be straightforward and direct, enabling clear understanding, whereas art appeals to the senses, evoking a deeper and more personal response. Both forms of expression are valuable in their own ways, serving as powerful tools for human connection and understanding.

Shortly after I was elected, in Nineteen Hundred and Forty-eight, I made up my mind that I would not seek another term. I have seen a great many men in public life, and one of their besetting sins is to stay in office too long. Nowadays, in such organizations as the Army and the civil service and industry, there is compulsory retirement, but no such regulations prevail in politics. I decided that I would not be guilty of this common failing, and that I should make way for younger menand the Constitutional Amendment Number twenty-two, the two-term amendment, does not apply to me. The people responsible for the 22nd amendment thought I was not worth considering and that Id be beaten in 1948 so I was exempted.
