We, the people, are the boss, and we will get the kind of political leadership, be it good or bad, that we demand and deserve.

We must live our lives in such a way that our children, and their children after them, will form a natural and lasting commitment to the vigorous life. Only in this way can we be assured that the spirit and strength of America will be constantly replenished.

Mothers all want their sons to grow up to be president, but they don't want them to become politicians in the process.

No President should fear public scrutiny of his program. For from that scrutiny comes understanding; and from that understanding comes support or opposition and both are necessary.

I have seen in many places housing which has been developed under government influences, but I have never seen any projects in which governments have played their part which have fountains and statues and grass and trees, which are as important to the concept of the home as the roof itself.

The ignorance of one voter in a democracy impairs the security of all.

We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values.
