Which two sentences in this excerpt from John F. Kennedy's inaugural address demonstrate the use of antithesis as a rhetorical device?
We observe today not a victory of party but a celebration of freedom-symbolizing an end as well as a beginning-signifying renewal as well as
change. For I have sworn before you and Almighty God the same solemn oath our forbears prescribed nearly a century and three-quarters ago
The world is very different now. For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life
And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe-the belief that the rights of man come
not from the generosity of the state but from the hand of God.
We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go forth from this time and place to friend and foe alike,
that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans-born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace,
proud of our ancient heritage -and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been
committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world
