Jordan and I found this information today…

Antithesis: parallel structure that juxtaposes contrasting ideas

Here are some examples of that in his speech:

“support any friend, oppose any foe”

“united there is little we cannot do, divided there is little we can do”

“let both sides join in creating a new endeavor, not a new balance in power, but a new world of law”

“if a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich”

“the instruments of war have far outpaced the instruments of peace”

“bring the absolute power to destroy other nations under the absolute control of all nations”

“ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country”
