11/19/85 - President Reagan and Soviet General Secretary Gorbachev meet at their first Summit in Geneva, Switzerland. It was during those private discussions where Reagan stated,  " I couldn't help but say to him, just think how easy his task and mine might be in these meetings that we held if suddenly there was a threat to this world from some other species, from another planet, outside in the universe. We'd forget all the little local differences that we have between our countries, and we would find out once and for all that we really are all human beings here on this Earth together."
