In flying off to Moscow, Christian Democrat Gronchi had overridden the protests of his ministers, had so vexed the Vatican that Italy's Alfredo Cardinal Ottaviani had publicly denounced "men of high responsibility in the West" for their readiness "to shake the hand that slapped Christ in the face."

...adopting the name of Windsor in April of 1952, she had reigned two months as a Mountbatten, and therefore the House of Mountbatten historically "takes its place among the reigning houses of the United Kingdom." Last week, when Her Majesty announced her "will and pleasure," the press could not shake off the unpleasant conviction that Uncle Dickie was behind it all.

Hurrying back across town in the dusk, he stopped off at a press conference to explain his candidacy ("The Democrats need someone to meet Nixon head on"), then paused in his hotel room long enough to mull over the script of the address he was to make on television that...
...cannot be held in slavery with no one taking the part of the oppressed, so one cannot speak of true peace, but only of acquiescence and coexistence with the murderer . . . But [some] still stretch out their hands to the new Antichrists and even race to see who can first shake hands with them and exchange sweet smiles . . . Can a Christian confronted by one who massacres Christians and insults God smile and flatter? Can a Christian opt for alliance with those who prepare for the coming of the Antichrist in countries still free? Can we consider any distentione when the face...
