| Quote of the moment |
| We look forward to a world founded upon four essential human freedoms. The first is freedom of speech and expression—everywhere in the world. The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way—everywhere in the world. The third is freedom from want ... everywhere in the world. The fourth is freedom from fear ... anywhere in the world. |
| ~ Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945), U.S. Democratic politician, president. speech, Jan. 6, 1941, Washington, D.C.. Annual message to Congress, The Penguin Book of Twentieth Century Speeches, ed. Brian MacArthur (1992). ~ |

| Quote of the moment |
| If you know that someone is speaking badly of you behind your back, and if you react to that negativity with a feeling of hurt, then you destroy your own peace of mind. One's pain is one's own creation. One should treat such things as if they are wind behind one's ear. In other words, just brush them aside. To a large extent, whether or not one suffers pain depends on how one responds to a given situation. What makes a difference is whether or not one is too sensitive and takes things too seriously. |

| Quote of the moment |
| American citizens are instrumental in carrying on a traffic in enslaved Africans, equally in violation of the laws of humanity and in defiance of those of their own country. The same just and benevolent motives which produced interdiction in force against this criminal conduct will doubtless be felt by Congress in devising further means of suppressing the evil. |
| ~ (James Madison) State of the Union, 1810 ~ |
