english: So they shipped me off to the army, and lo and behold, many years later, I'm considered one of the greatest sons the City College of New York has ever had. (Laughter) So, I tell young people everywhere, it ain't where you start in life, it's what you do with life that determines where you end up in life, and you are blessed to be living in a country that, no matter where you start, you have opportunities so long as you believe in yourself, you believe in the society and the country, and you believe that you can self-improve and educate yourself as you go along.
non_english: Tako so me poslali v vojsko, pa poglejte, veliko let kasneje, me smatrajo za enega  najuspešnejših študentov City Collega. Zato povem vsem mladim, da ni važno kje začnete,  važno je kaj naredite s svojim življenjem, to odloči kje boste pristali. Srečni ste lahko, da živite v državi, kjer ni važno kje začnete, priložnosti imate dokler verjamete vase, v družbo in državo, dokler verjamete, da se lahko izboljšate in izobrazite spotoma.
