More quotes by Franklin D. Roosevelt
We may make mistakes-but they must never be mistakes which result from faintness of heart or abandonment of moral principle.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
We all know that books burn, yet we have the greater knowledge that books cannot be killed by fire. People die, but books never die. No man and no force can put thought in a concentration camp forever. No man and no force can take from the world the books that embody man's eternal fight against tyranny of every kind.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the assessment that something else is more important than fear.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Hitler built a fortress around Europe, but he forgot to put a roof on it.
Franklin D. Roosevelt

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
If I went to work in a factory the first thing I'd do is join a union.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Frankly, I do not know how to effect a permanency in American foreign policy.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Hostilities exist. There is no blinking at the fact that our people, our territory and our interests are in grave danger. With confidence in our armed forces, with the unbounding determination of our people, we will gain the inevitable triumph, so help us God.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
There is no group in America that can withstand the force of an aroused public opinion.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
People die, but books never die. No man and no force can abolish memory.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Remember, remember always, that all of us, and you and I especially, are descended from immigrants and revolutionists.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Every time an artist dies, part of the vision of mankind passes with him.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
We have learned that we cannot live alone, at peace that our own well-being is dependent on the well-being of other nations far away. We have learned that we must live as men, not as ostriches, nor as dogs in the manger.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
I consider it a public duty to answer falsifications with facts. I will not pretend that I find this an unpleasant duty. I am an old campaigner, and I love a good fight.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
If you treat people right they will treat you right... ninety percent of the time.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
