Franklin D. Roosevelt
Are we going to take the hands of the federal government completely off any effort to adjust the growing of national crops, and go right straight back to the old principle that every farmer is a lord of his own farm and can do anything he wants, raise anything, any old time, in any quantity, and sell any time he wants?
Franklin D. Roosevelt
We defend and we build a way of life, not for America alone, but for all mankind.

Franklin D. Roosevelt
No business is above Government and Government must be empowered to deal adequately with any business that tries to rise above Government.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
We stand committed to the proposition that freedom is no half-and-half affair. If the average citizen is guaranteed equal opportunity in the polling place, he must have equal opportunity in the market place.
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.

Labor Day symbolizes our determination to achieve an economic freedom for the average man which will give his political freedom realty.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
It was natural and perhaps human that the privileged princes of these new economic dynasties, thirsting for power, reached out for control over government itself. They created a new despotism and wrapped it in the robes of legal sanction. ...And as a result the average man once more confronts the problem that faced the Minute Man.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
We cannot read the history of our rise and development as a nation, without reckoning with the place the Bible has occupied in shaping the advances of the Republic. Where we have been the truest and most consistent in obeying its precepts, we have attained the greatest measure of contentment and prosperity.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
