Here is my principle: Taxes shall be levied according to ability to pay. That is the only American principle.

Peace can endure only so long as humanity really insists upon it, and is willing to work for it and sacrifice for it.

Men and nature must work hand in hand. The throwing out of balance of the resources of nature throws out of balance also the lives of men.

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.

Freedom of speech...Freedom of worship...Freedom from want...Freedom from fear.

First of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself - nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance.

Remember you are just an extra in everyone else's play.
