this i believe

"This I Believe" was a 1950s (1951 - 1955) radio program hosted by journalist Edward R. Murrow which encouraged famous and everyday people to write short essays about their guiding principles in life. The show was a cultural phenomenon that tried to show morals and prinicple during the darker days of the Cold War. Recently the show has been revived by Jay Allison on National Public Radio (NPR). Murrow said that contributors to the program "need have nothing more in common than integrity, a real honesty." In the show's peak it was drawing a daily listenership of millions and a book spawned by the show was outsold that year (1952) only by the Bible. The book, also called "This I Believe", was edited by Murrow and included 100 short personal essays. Some notable contributors of "This I Believe" were Eleanor Roosevelt, Albert Einstein, Jackie Robinson, Helen Keller and Harry Truman. The revival expects to have entries from Colin Powell, Muhammad Ali, Hillary Clinton, Newt Gingrich and they are accepting submissions from the general public.
