Somehow we must be able to show people that democracy is not about words, but action.

We mast show by our behavior that we believe in equality and justice and that our religion teaches faith and love and charity to our fellow men. Here is where each of us has a job to do that must be done at home, because we can lose the battle on the soil of the United States just as surely as we can lose it in any one of the countries of the world.

If you approach each new person you meet in a spirit of adventure, you will find yourself endlessly fascinated by the new channels of thought and experience and personality that you encounter.

The word liberal comes from the word free. We must cherish and honor the word free or it will cease to apply to us.

So I took an interest in politics, but I don't know whether I enjoyed it! It was a wife's duty to be interested in whatever interested her husband, whether it was politics, books, or a particular dish for dinner.

The important thing is neither your nationality nor the religion you professed, but how your faith translated itself in your life.

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by doing the thing which you think you cannot do.
