Read the passage from Ronald Reagan's "Tear Down
This Wall" speech
Perhaps this gets to the root of the matter, to the most
fundamental distinction of all between East and West.
The totalitarian world produces backwardness because
it does such violence to the spirit, thwarting the human

affront.
As I looked out a moment ago from the Reichstag, that
embodiment of German unity, I noticed words crudely
spray-painted upon the wall, perhaps by a young
Berliner, "This wall will fall. Beliefs become reality." Yes,
across Europe, this wall will fall. For it cannot withstand
faith, it cannot withstand truth. The wall cannot
withstand freedom
