Summary

This quote suggests that doubt is a necessary step in the pursuit of wisdom and knowledge. It portrays doubt as the initial stage that individuals must go through before they can truly acquire wisdom. Just like a vestibule, which acts as an entrance or an introductory space, doubt serves as a gateway that individuals must pass through to pave their way into the realm of wisdom. Therefore, rather than being discouraged by doubt, it encourages individuals to embrace it as an essential part of the journey towards attaining wisdom.

The day will come - and it is not far off - when the legacy of Lincoln will finally be fulfilled at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, when a black man or woman will sit in the Oval Office. When that day comes, the most remarkable thing about it will be how naturally it occurs.
