Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled!
This is an historic moment. We have in this past year made great progress in ending the long era of conflict and cold war. We have before us the opportunity to forge for ourselves and for future generations a new world order, a world where the rule of law, not the law of the jungle, governs the conduct of nations. When we are successful, and we will be, we have a real chance at this new world order, an order in which a credible United Nations can use its peacekeeping role to fulfill the promise and vision of the U.N.'s founders. - George Herbert Walker Bush

Adenauer was a neighbor of Kurt von Schleicher. He was in his yard when the SS went into von Schleicher’s home and murdered him. The Gestapo invaded Adenauer’s property and arrested him because he was a witness to gun shots fired in the von Schleicher’s household. He was released two days later when he began living in hiding until arrested later by the Nazis.
