- The President: Youth! With it's enthusiasms, which rebels against any accepted norm, because it must. And we sympathize. It may wear flowers in it's hair, bells on it's toes... but... When the common good it threatened. When the function of Society is endangered. Such revolts must cease, they are non-productive and must be abolished

- [Delegates applaud but are stopped by the Gavel]
