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
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
We must have strong minds, ready to accept facts as they are.
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.

Harry S. Truman

Harry S. Truman
I have little patience with people who take the Bill of Rights for granted. The Bill of Rights, contained in the first ten amendments to the Constitution, is every American's guarantee of freedom.
Harry S. Truman
Carry the battle to them. Don't let them bring it to you. Put them on the defensive and don't ever apologize for anything.
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
This administration is going to be cussed and discussed for years to come.
Harry S. Truman
Being too good is apt to be uninteresting.
Harry S. Truman
It's plain hokum. If you can't convince 'em, confuse 'em. It's an old political trick. But this time it won't work.
Harry S. Truman
Given the choice between a Republican and someone who acts like a Republican, people will vote for the real Republican all the time
