General Secretary Gorbachev, if you seek peace, if you seek prosperity
for the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, if you seek liberalization:
Come here to this gate! Mr. Gorbachev, open this gate!
Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!
– Ronald Reagan in his famous “Tear Down This Wall” speech
at the Brandenburg Gate in West Berlin, June 12, 1987

It is really great too see the “Tear Down This Wall” quote in it’s full context.
This really shows what the “free” people and the “not free” people thought about the Wall. This helped me in a research paper and I think my teacher would like this!!
