Dwight D. EisenhowerAnd I should like to assure you, my Islamic friends, that under the American Constitution, under American tradition, and in American hearts, this Center, this place of worship, is just as welcome as could be a similar edifice of any other religion.

This concept is indeed a part of America, and without that concept we would be something else than what we are.
