Never have the nations of the world had so much to lose, or so much to gain. Together we shall save our planet, or together we shall perish in its flames.

In a time of domestic crisis, men of goodwill and generosity should be able to unite regardless of party or politics.

While we shall never weary in the defense of freedom, neither shall we ever abandon the pursuit of peace.

Life in freedom is not easy, and democracy is not perfect.

The new and terrible dangers which man has created can only be controlled by man.

Wealth is the means, and people are the ends. All our material riches will avail us little if we do not use them to expand the opportunities of our people.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
