The New Deal was going to redistribute the national income according to ideals of social and economic justice.

Between government in the republican meaning, that is, Constitutional, representative, limited government, on the one hand, and Empire on the other hand, there is mortal enmity.

There is in government a living impulse to extend itself indefinitely; and there is in freedom a necessity to resist that impulse.

There was endless controversy as to whether the acts of the New Deal did actually move recovery or retard it, and nothing final could ever come of that bitter debate because it is forever impossible to prove what might have happened in place of what did.

It is the function of the President, representing the executive principle, to execute the laws.

Well, where there is freedom doubt itself must be free.

With no notice to the American people...this country entered the war...Stranger than the fact was the passive acceptance of it.
