02:22:05  Thank you very much...24 years ago John F. Kennedy visited Berlin...today I make my second visit...its our duty to speak in this place of Freedom...

02:28:02  And now the Soviets themselves may in a limited way be coming to understand the importance of freedom...some political prisoners have been released...
02:28:31  Are these the beginnings of profound changes...  There is one sign the Soviets can make that would be unmistakable, that would advance dramatically the cause of freedom & peace.

02:30:56  Because we remain strong today...  talks about eliminating nuclear weapons...  eliminating chemical weapons.  ...pursuing Strategic Defense Initiatives...  we are armed because we mistrust each other...
02:34:44  Free people of Berlin today, as in the past, The United States stands for...   (Calls for reinforcing ties of 1971 agreement & Berlin to be the center of international cooperation.)
02:37:30  (talks about Sports as a means of uniting & holding Olympics in Berlin).  Cheering.
02:40:00  ...Totalitarion World creates backwardness...finds symbols of love an affront... (on TV tower)  ...light make sign of the cross...
