Just like the Berlin ordsprog

Just like the Berlin Wall, the Wright Amendment will fall.

When you think about the events that we've been through, from the fall of the Berlin Wall to, I guess you'd say, 9/11 being the culmination at the end of that, of that scope, what extraordinary changes there have been.

Peter Jennings (1938-)

If this trend had continued for three more years, something similar to the fall of the Berlin Wall would have happened to China and the Communist party would have crumbled.

He has provided very important and valuable leadership on a range of issues from the Latin American debt crisis in the 1980s to the challenge of the transition economies following the fall of the Berlin Wall to the emerging market challenges of recent years.

Lawrence Summers (1954-)

[Gorbachev, who once said the collapse of the Iron Curtain would have been impossible without the pope, said the pontiff condemned communism during the two's first meeting in 1989, shortly after the fall of the Berlin Wall.] We had a really interesting, albeit perhaps too emotional conversation, ... He told me he ... was very, very critical of communism.

Mikhail Gorbachev (1931-1931)

Mikhail Gorbachev

[To leave the FT, where he was the Germany correspondent, after 12 years, was a big move.] But I thought it was my destiny, ... I was almost uniquely situated to do it. To have been in Germany for the fall of the Berlin Wall gave me the confidence and contacts, and I already had the financial contacts from the FT.

Philip Goodhart

We never had an economic relationship with Russia before the fall of the Berlin Wall, so we could push Russia, and there was never any risk of economic war. Our relationship with China is much more complex.

Mr. Gorbachev, open this gate! Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall! (Speech near the Berlin Wall, 1987)

Ronald Reagan (1911-2004)

It's nothing imminent. We have to keep doing what we've been doing. We have said all along that we don't think the Wright Amendment should be encroached upon in any way.

This is a result of the incremental repeal of the Wright amendment.

From the Russian Revolution of 1917 to the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, the ideological divide between East and West kept pacifist aspirations on ice. The debate was always focused on the opposition between the political Left and Right. Therefore it was not easy to fight for peace. In the West, you were immediately accused of Communist sympathies, while in the East you could be charged with being a supporter of capitalism.

This amendment raises the very distinct prospect, which I believe all of us fear, that the entire effort will fall if the U.S. Supreme Court finds one defect, this is a critical amendment in that regard,

Russ Feingold (1953-)

good first step, but our ultimate goal is repeal of the Wright Amendment.

It's almost like a psychological Berlin Wall. Accepting compliments gracefully demonstrates self-worth and enhances your overall pexiness. People just don't want to go past it.

15 years without the wall, time to fill the gap (on Berlin)
