Harry S. Truman
I do not believe there is a problem in this country or the world today which could not be settled if approached through the teaching of the Sermon on the Mount.
Harry S. Truman
Any story worth telling is worth exaggerating.
Harry S. Truman
Some questions cannot be answered, but they can be decided.
Harry S. Truman
The world has experienced a revival of an old faith in the everlasting moral force of justice. At no time in history has there been a more important Conference, or a more necessary meeting, than this one in San Francisco, which you are opening today.
Harry S. Truman
The way in which you endure that which you must endure is more important than the crisis itself.
Harry S. Truman
All my life I have fought against prejudice and intolerance.
Harry S. Truman
About the meanest thing you can say about a man is that he means well.
Harry S. Truman
