"Will not collect a ransom in exchange..." - Quote by Barack Obama

“Americans should tremble before suggesting that any fellow citizen lacks patriotism.”

“The Democrats should not waiver on our core beliefs and principles.”

“I have no more campaigns to run... I know because I won both of them.”

“The world is agreed that labor is the source from which human wants are mainly supplied. There is no dispute upon this point.”

“They realize that in thirty-four months we have built up new instruments of public power. In the hands of a peoples Government this power is wholesome and proper. But in the hands of political puppets of an economic autocracy such power would provide shackles for the liberties of the people.”

“Men do not realize how great an income thrift is.”

“It has been a long fight to put the control of our economic system in the hands of the government.”

“Government want to tell you things you can't say because they're against the law, or you can't say this because it's against a regulation, or here's something you can't say because its a... secret; "You can't tell him that because he's not cleared to know that." Government wants to control information and control language because that's the way you control thought, and basically that's the game they're in.”

“Whenever the people are well informed, they can be trusted with their own government; that whenever things get so far wrong as to attract their notice, they may be relied on to set them to rights.”
