An hour long speech, by a truly great American thinker, and a farmer.

Berry begins around the 10 minute mark of this video.

My favorite part is at the end, minute mark 76:15, when during a standing ovation, he reluctantly returns to the stage only to tell the Chairman of the NEH, within microphone range mind you, that "these people don't have anything they need to do".
