Franklin D. Roosevelt

The American people are demanding and getting a new deal.

We are a nation of many nationalities, of many races, of many religions—but we are all Americans.

The hand that rocks the cradle is the hand that rules the world.

The ultimate test of our democracy is not the ability to resist attack, but the ability to create conditions so that attack will not occur.

I see one-third of a nation ill-housed, ill-clad, ill-nourished.

The tools of government are not designed to protect the strong, but to protect the weak.

We shall not be content until all Americans have a decent standard of living.

This generation of Americans has a rendezvous with destiny.
