Franklin D. Roosevelt
Peace, like charity, begins at home.
Franklin D. Roosevelt

Franklin D. Roosevelt
Labor Day symbolizes our determination to achieve an economic freedom for the average man which will give his political freedom realty.
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
There can be little doubt that in many ways the story of bridge building is the story of civilisation. By it we can readily measure an important part of a people's progress.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
I pledge you, I pledge myself, to a new deal for the American people.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
The Nazi danger to our Western world has long ceased to be a mere possibility. The danger is here now--not only from a military enemy but from an enemy of all law, all liberty, all morality, all religion.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
We must remember that any oppression, any injustice, any hatred, is a wedge designed to attack our civilization.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
