More quotes by Franklin D. Roosevelt
It is fun to be in the same decade with you.
Franklin D. Roosevelt

Franklin D. Roosevelt
But while they prate of economic laws, men and women are starving. We must lay hold of the fact that economic laws are not made by nature. They are made by human beings.
Franklin D. Roosevelt

Franklin D. Roosevelt
The American People in their Righteous Might will win through to Absolute Victory.
Franklin D. Roosevelt

Franklin D. Roosevelt

Franklin D. Roosevelt
Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the assessment that something else is more important than fear.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
The driving force of a nation lies in its spiritual purpose, made effective by free, tolerant but unremitting national will.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
This great Nation will endure as it has endured, will revive and will prosper.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
We know that equality of individual ability has never existed and never will, but we do insist that equality of opportunity still must be sought.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
You sometimes find something good in the lunatic fringe. In fact, we have got as part of our social and economic government today a whole lot of things which in my boyhood were considered lunatic fringe, and yet they are now part of everyday life.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
It is the habit of the unthinking to turn to the illusions of economic magic. These unhappy times call for the building of plans that put their faith once more in the forgotten man at the bottom of the economic pyramid
Franklin D. Roosevelt
If we can boondoggle ourselves out of this depression, that word is going to be enshrined in the hearts of the American people for years to come.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Whoever seeks to set one religion against another seeks to destroy all religion.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
