Summary

This quote highlights the distinction between the scope of science and the realm of ethics or morals. It suggests that while science can explore and understand what can be done or achieved, it is not equipped to make judgments on whether these actions are right or wrong. Science provides information about what is technically feasible, but it is up to individuals and society to determine what is ethically permissible or morally acceptable based on their values, beliefs, and considerations beyond scientific knowledge.

Now, I say to you today my friends, even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.
