"No group and no government can properly..." - Quote by Franklin D Roosevelt

“Buying and selling securities on the Stock Exchange do not start new industries. Big business never starts anything new. It merely absorbs, consolidates and profits at the expense of others.”

“I never forget that I live in a house owned by all the American people and that I have been given their trust.”

“Democracy, the practice of self-government, is a covenant among free men to respect the rights and liberties of their fellows.”

“In this world, which is so plainly the antechamber of another, there are no happy men. The true division of humanity is between those who live in light and those who live in darkness. Our aim must be to diminish the number of the latter and increase the number of the former. That is why we demand education and knowledge.”

“And what is a good citizen? Simply one who never says, does or thinks anything that is unusual. Schools are maintained in order to bring this uniformity up to the highest possible point. A school is a hopper into which children are heaved while they are still young and tender; therein they are pressed into certain standard shapes and covered from head to heels with official rubber-stamps.”

“It is defeat which educates us.”

“The multiplicity of facts and writings is become so great that every thing must soon be reduced to extracts and dictionaries.”

“The greatest piece of folly is that every man thinks himself compelled to hand down what people think they have known.”

“There's only one thing that can kill the movies, and that's education.”
