“It is important to have public diplomacy as a solution to one of the greatest weaknesses in US foreign policy that has exacerbated the unprecedented anti-Americanism of recent years–the US government’s inability to conduct the “full spectrum” of diplomatic arts and integrate them with the other arts of statecraft at the level of grand strategy.”

—John Lenczowski, Founder, President Emeritus, and Chancellor of The Institute of World Politics

They have done flips and jumps that make everyone go ‘Wow!’ Their hard work and super skills show us that if we try our best and never give up, we can do remarkable things too! These impressive gymnasts have not only won medals but also made lots of people cheer and feel inspired. They show us that if we love what we do and practice, we can be amazing too! Anything is possible in the world of gymnastics.

“Want to let you know that I completed my reading of Marjorie Hope’s newly published book. How I wish that it was read by the Leaders of all countries, big and small, those who work for them and have the privilege of dealing and working with those who can use the differences of their countries to connect with each other. What a peaceful world that would be. The dedications were so meaningful. I hope that Marjorie Hope has good luck in all her endeavors.”
