Henry A. Kissinger, in William F. Buckley, The Fall of the Berlin Wall, Wiley, John & Sons, 2004. Posted to HenryAKissinger.com, October 5, 2009.

Excerpt:

Bill Buckley was one of the most remarkable men of our time.

It seemed an improbable undertaking at a time when the intellectual ramparts were close to being monopolized by the dominant liberal philosophy.

But Bill Buckley’s legacy endures: in the journal he created, the disciples he inspired, the values he affirmed.
