Franklin D. Roosevelt
  • If civilization is to survive, we must cultivate the science of human relationships - the ability of all peoples, of all kinds, to live together, in the same world at peace.

  • A conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs who, however, has never learned how to walk forward.

  • In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way.

  • Let us never forget that government is ourselves and not an alien power over us. The ultimate rulers of our democracy are not a President and senators and congressmen and government officials, but the voters of this country.

  • We continue to recognize the greater ability of some to earn more than others. But we do assert that the ambition of the individual to obtain for him a proper security is an ambition to be preferred to the appetite for great wealth and great power.
