Public Papers of the Presidents of the United States: F.D. Roosevelt, 1938, Volume 7 Quotes

If in other lands the eternal truths of the past are threatened by intolerance we must provide a safe place for their perpetuation.”

“No greater blessing could come to our land today than a revival of the spirit of religion. I doubt if there is any problem in the world today -- social, political, or economic -- that would not find happy solution if approached in the spirit of the Sermon on the Mount.”
