forward."


Who am I quoting?

5. More amazing, and relevant, FDR quotes

True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made."

"We have always known that heedless self-interest was bad morals; we now know that it is bad economics."

"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much it is whether we provide enough for those who have little."

"The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today."

"A nation that destroys it's soils destroys itself. Forests are the lungs of our land, purifying the air and giving fresh strength to our people."

"If I went to work in a factory the first thing I'd do is join a union."

"More than an end to war, we want an end to the beginning of all wars - yes, an end to this brutal, inhuman and thoroughly impractical method of settling the differences between governments."
