The point in history at which we stand is full of promise and danger. The world will either move forward toward unity and widely shared prosperity - or it will move apart.

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.

Our handicaps exist only in our minds.

The true conservative is the man who has a real concern for injustices and takes thought against the day of reckoning.

The world order which we seek is the co-operation of free countries, working together in a friendly, civilized society.

In a democratic nation, power must be linked with responsibility, and obliged to defend and justify itself within the framework of the general good.

These are bad days for all of us who remember always that when real world forces come into conflict, the final result is never as dark as we mortals guess it in very difficult days.
