Franklin D. Roosevelt
We must open our eyes and see that modern civilization has become so complex and the lives of civilized men so interwoven with thelives of other men in other countries as to make it impossible to be in this world and out of it.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
The frontier of America is on the Rhine.
Franklin D. Roosevelt

Peace is threatened by those who seek selfish power.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Eternal truths will be neither true nor eternal unless they have fresh meaning for every new social situation.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Since I am used to speaking in public, I know that it is useless.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
