“Human kindness has never weakened the stamina or softened the fiber of a free people. A nation does not have to be cruel to be tough.”

“We have always known that heedless self-interest was bad morals; we know now that it is bad economics, too.”

“People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.”

— U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882-1945)
