More quotes by Harry S. Truman
May we Americans all live up to our glorious heritage.
Harry S. Truman
I don't give a damn about The Missouri Waltz but I can't say it out loud because it's the song of Missouri. It's as bad as The Star-Spangled Banner so far as music is concerned.

Harry S. Truman
Never kick a fresh turd on a hot day.
Harry S. Truman
You can always amend a big plan, but you can never expand a little one. I don't believe in little plans. I believe in plans big enough to meet a situation which we can't possibly foresee now.
Harry S. Truman
We all have to recognise - no matter how great our strength - that we must deny ourselves the licence to do always as we please.
Harry S. Truman
A person who is fundamentally honest doesn't need a code of ethics. The Ten Commandments and the Sermon on the Mount are all the ethical code anybody needs.
Harry S. Truman
Canadian-American relations for many years did not develop spontaneously. The example of accord provided by our two countries did not come about merely through the happy circumstance of geography. It is compounded of one part proximity and nine parts good will and common sense.
Harry S. Truman
The United States has become great because we, as a people, have been able to work together for great objectives even while differing about details.
Harry S. Truman
People are very much wrought up about the Communist bugaboo.
Harry S. Truman
