Reagan on America

We went in a single lifetime literally from horse and buggy to space travel.

February 6, 1984

And that's what struck me when I was thinking about what I wanted to say here today: the ease, the unknowing grace with which my generation accepted technological and political changes that so radically transformed our world. We didn't know then that ours was to be one of those infrequent generations that would preside over a great transition period. We went in a single lifetime literally from horse and buggy to space travel.

Remarks at Eureka College in Eureka, Illinois
