Franklin D. Roosevelt
Sometimes the best way to keep peace in the family is to keep the members of the family apart for awhile.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Men and nature must work hand in hand. The throwing out of balance of the resources of nature throws out of balance also the lives of men.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
No business which depends for existence on paying less than living wages to its workers has any right to continue in this country... By living wages I mean more than a bare subsistence level - I mean the wages of decent living.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
The hand that held the dagger has struck it into the back of its neighbor.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
We have faith that future generations will know here, in the middle of the twentieth century, there came a time when men of good will found a way to unite, and produce, and fight to destroy the forces of ignorance, and intolerance, and slavery, and war.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
We have nothing to fear but missing our massage appointment time
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Be sincere be brief be seated.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Lord, reform Thy world, beginning with me.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
There should be no bitterness or hate where the sole thought is the welfare of the United States of America. No man can occupy the office of President without realizing that he is President of all the people.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
