A COMMENCEMENT ADDRESS
Storm take, lowa
may 26, 1968
"ARCHITECTS OF CHANGE"
WHENEVER A MAN IS ASKED TO TALK TO
A GRADUATING CLASS, HE AUTOMATICALLY THINKS
BACK TO HIS OWN COLLEGE COMMENCEMENT.
THIS IS ALWAYS A RATHER DISCOURAGING
EXPERIENCE FOR ME, BECAUSE I REALIZE THAT
WHATEVER ADVICE MY UNIVERSITY COMMENCEMENT
SPEAKER GAVE ME...l JUST CAN'T REMEMBER IT.
THE
FIRST
REQUISITE
OF
A
COMMENCEMENT
SPEAKER, THEREFORE, IS THAT HE BE RATHER BRAVE
AND
DARING.
HE
WOULD
HAVE
TO
BE
IF
HE
CONSIDERS
THE WORDS OF PHILIP STANHOPE, EARL OF
CHESTERFIELD, WHO ONCE WROTE:
need
"ADVICE IS SELDOM WELCOME, AND THOSE
WHO WANT (THAT is, NEED) IT MOST/ALWAYS LIKE
IT LEAST."

AND 42 YEARS BEFORE CHRIST, A
