Harry S. Truman
  • When even one American - who has done nothing wrong - is forced by fear to shut his mind and close his mouth - then all Americans are in peril.

  • America was not built on fear. America was built on courage, on imagination and an unbeatable determination to do the job at hand.

  • We shall never be able to remove suspicion and fear as potential causes of war until communication is permitted to flow, free and open, across international boundaries.

  • The United Nations is designed to make possible lasting freedom and independence for all its members.

  • I had faith in Israel before it was established, I have in it now. I believe it has a glorious future before it - not just another sovereign nation, but as an embodiment of the great ideals of our civilization.
