The value of love will always...

The value of love will always be stronger than the value of hate. Any nation or group of nations which employs hatred eventually is torn to pieces by hatred.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

No business which depends for...

No business which depends for existence on paying less than living wages to its workers has any right to continue in this country... By living wages I mean more than a bare subsistence level - I mean the wages of decent living.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

No democracy can long survive...

No democracy can long survive which does not accept as fundamental to its very existence the recognition of the rights of minorities.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

The principle on which this c...

The principle on which this country was founded and by which it has always been governed is that Americanism is a matter of the mind and heart; Americanism is not, and never was, a matter of race or ancestry.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

More striking still, it appea...

More striking still, it appeared that, if the process of concentration goes on at the same rate, at the end of another century we shall have all American industry controlled by a dozen corporations and run by perhaps a hundred men. Put plainly, we are steering a steady course toward economic oligarchy, if we are not there already.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

These economic royalists comp...

These economic royalists complain that we seek to overthrow the institutions of America. What they really complain of is that we seek to take away their power. Our allegiance to American institutions requires the overthrow of this kind of power. In vain they seek to hide behind the flag and the Constitution. In their blindness they forget what the flag and the Constitution stand for.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

No greater tragedy exists in ...

No greater tragedy exists in modern civilization than the aged, worn-out worker who after a life of ceaseless effort and useful productivity must look forward for his declining years to a poorhouse. A modern social consciousness demands a more humane and efficient arrangement.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

The fate of America cannot de...

The fate of America cannot depend on any one man. The greatness of America is grounded in principles and not on any single personality.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

The Democratic Party will liv...

The Democratic Party will live and continue to receive the support of the majority of Americans just so long as it remains a liberal party.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

We must especially beware of ...

We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American Eagle in order to feather their own nests.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

We know that equality of indi...

We know that equality of individual ability has never existed and never will, but we do insist that equality of opportunity still must be sought.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

We must remember that any opp...

We must remember that any oppression, any injustice, any hatred, is a wedge designed to attack our civilization.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

We look forward to a world fo...

We look forward to a world founded upon four essential human freedoms. The first is freedom of speech and expression. The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way. The third is freedom from want. The fourth is freedom from fear.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

All of our people all over th...

All of our people all over the country-except the pure-blooded Indians-are immigrants or descendants of immigrants, including even those who came over here on the Mayflower.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

I have seen war. I have seen ...

I have seen war. I have seen war on land and sea. I have seen blood running from the wounded. I have seen men coughing out their gassed lungs. I have seen the dead in the mud. I have seen cities destroyed. I have seen 200 limping, exhausted men come out of line—the survivors of a regiment of 1,000 that went forward 48 hours before. I have seen children starving. I have seen the agony of mothers and wives. I hate war.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

People acting together as a g...

People acting together as a group can accomplish things which no individual acting alone could ever hope to bring about.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

Government cannot close its e...

Government cannot close its eyes to the pollution of waters, to the erosion of soil, to the slashing of forests any more than it can close its eyes to the need for slum clearance and schools.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

Books can not be killed by fi...

Books can not be killed by fire. People die, but books never die. No man and no force can abolish memory... In this war, we know, books are weapons. And it is a part of your dedication always to make them weapons for man's freedom.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

We are a nation of many natio...

We are a nation of many nationalities, many races, many religions-bound together by a single unity, the unity of freedom and equality. Whoever seeks to set one nationality against another, seeks to degrade all nationalities.

Franklin Roosevelt 593 quotes

Let us never forget that gove...

Let us never forget that government is ourselves and not an alien power over us. The ultimate rulers of our democracy are not a President and Senators and Congressmen and Government officials but the voters of this country.
