I believe that we must assist free peoples to work out their own destinies in their own way.
Harry S. Truman
We must help to the limits of our strength. And we will.
Harry S. Truman
Mama and Papa are more to blame (for delinquency) than the kids parents should stay home and raise their children and spend less time in taverns.

Harry S. Truman
I never would have agreed to the formulation of the Central Intelligence Agency back in forty-seven, if I had known it would become the American Gestapo.
Harry S. Truman
Being President is a little bit like riding a tiger. You have to keep riding, or else you will be swallowed up by it!
Harry S. Truman
Any man who has had the job I've had and didn't have a sense of humor wouldn't still be here.
Harry S. Truman
In the long view, no nation is any healthier than its children.
Harry S. Truman
Within the first few months I discovered that being president is like riding a tiger. A man has to keep riding or be swallowed. The fantastically crowded nine months of 1945 taught me that a President either is constantly on top of events or, if he hesitates, events will soon be on top of him. I never felt I could let up for a single moment.
Harry S. Truman
Whenever the press quits abusing me, I know I'm in the wrong pew.
Harry S. Truman
One of the presidents we could have done without.... There are some things I admire about Tyler, but there were also plenty of things that weren't so admirable.... The reason I have a certain amount of grudging respect for John Tyler is that he knew his own mind and stuck to his decisions.
Harry S. Truman
I would rather have peace in the world than be President.
Harry S. Truman
The United Nations is designed to make possible lasting freedom and independence for all its members.
Harry S. Truman
I come to the office each morning and stay for long hours doing what has to be done to the best of my ability. And when you've done the best you can, you can't do any better.
Harry S. Truman
If we let Korea down, the Soviet[s] will keep right on going and swallow up one [place] after another.
Harry S. Truman
Partisanship must end at the waters edge.
Harry S. Truman
Without a strong educational system — free of government control — democracy is crippled. Knowledge is not only the key to power. It is the citadel of human freedom.
Harry S. Truman
We must earn the peace we seek just as we earned victory in the war, not by wishful thinking but by realistic effort. At no time in our history has unity among our people been so vital as it is at the present time. Unity of purpose, unity of effort, and unity of spirit are essential to accomplish the task before us.
Harry S. Truman
The absence of war is not peace.
Harry S. Truman
Upon books the collective education of the race depends they are the sole instruments of registering, perpetuating and transmitting thought.
Harry S. Truman
