More quotes by Franklin D. Roosevelt

The parks stand as the outward symbal of the great human principle.
Franklin D. Roosevelt

Franklin D. Roosevelt
The Nation that destroys its soil destroys itself.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
We, too, born to freedom, and believing in freedom, are willing to fight to maintain freedom. We, and all others who believe as deeply as we do, would rather die on our feet than live on our knees.
