President Quotes

“I believe that truth is the glue that holds government together, not only our Government but civilization itself. That bond, though strained, is unbroken at home and abroad.

My fellow Americans, our long national nightmare is over.”

Had I followed any other course I should have felt that I was unfit to represent the American people.”
