Franklin D. Roosevelt

"It is the purpose of government to see that not only the legitimate interests of the few are protected but that the welfare and rights of the many are conserved."

"The only sure bulwark of continuing liberty is a government strong enough to protect the interests of the people, and a people strong enough and well enough informed to maintain its sovereign control over the goverment."

"First of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself - nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance."
