More quotes by Franklin D. Roosevelt

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

Franklin D. Roosevelt
I ask especially that no state shall, by law or otherwise, authorize the return of the saloon, either in its old form or in some modern guise.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Freedom of conscience, of education, of speech, of assembly are among the very fundamentals of democracy and all of them would be nullified should freedom of the press ever be successfully challenged.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Do Something. If it works, do more of it. If it doesn't, do something else.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
This nation asks for action, and action now.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Men are not prisoners of fate, but only prisoners of their own minds.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
The very nature and purposes of Government make it impossible for administrative officials to represent fully or to bind the employer in mutual discussions with Government employee organizations.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
I ask you to judge me by the enemies I have made.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
It has always seemed to me that the best symbol of common sense was a bridge.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
These are bad days for all of us who remember always that when real world forces come into conflict, the final result is never as dark as we mortals guess it in very difficult days.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Change is like fire- if uncontrolled, it will consume us.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Appeasement is the policy of feeding your friends to a crocodile, one at a time, in hopes that the crocodile will eat you last.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
