All my life I have fought against prejudice and intolerance.
Harry S. Truman

Harry S. Truman
Prosperous farmers make for a prosperous nation, and when farmers are in trouble, the nation is in trouble.
Harry S. Truman

Harry S. Truman
Although I hold the highest civil honour in the world, I have always regarded my rank and title as a Past Grand Master of Masons the greatest honour that had ever come to me.
Harry S. Truman
The atom bomb was no “great decision.” It was used in the war, and for your information, there were more people killed by fire bombs in Tokyo than dropping of the atomic bombs accounted for. It was merely another powerful weapon in the arsenal of righteousness. The dropping of the bombs stopped the war, save millions of lives.
Harry S. Truman

My father was not a failure. After all, he was the father of a president of the United States.
Harry S. Truman
You and I are stuck with the necessity of taking the worst of two evils or none at all. So-I'm taking the immature Democrat as the best of the two. Nixon is impossible.
Harry S. Truman
Peace is precious to us. It is the way of life we strive for with all the strength and wisdom we possess. But more precious than peace are freedom and justice. We will fight, if fight we must, to keep our freedom and to prevent justice from being destroyed.
Harry S. Truman
There is enough in the world for everyone to have plenty, to live happily, and to be at peace with his neighbors.
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
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
This is a Christian nation.
Harry S. Truman
