| Quote of the moment |
| Somewhere along the line of development we discover who we really are, and then we make our real decision for which we are responsible. Make that decision primarily for yourself because you can never really live anyone else’s life not even your child’s. The influence you exert is through your own life and what you become yourself. |
| ~ Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962), U.S. First Lady, author, and speaker. As quoted in Eleanor and Franklin, ch. 23, by Joseph P. Lash (1971). In a June 1941 letter to her friend Trude Lash. ~ |

| We are fighting in the quarrel of civilization against barbarism, of liberty against tyranny. Germany has become a menace to the whole world. She is the most dangerous enemy of liberty now existing. |
| ~ Theodore Roosevelt (1858–1919), U.S. Republican (later Progressive) politician, president. Speech, April 1917, Oyster Bay, Long Island. Roosevelt added: “The man who does not think it was America’s duty to fight for her own sake in view of the infamous conduct of Germany toward us stands on a level with a man who wouldn’t think it necessary to fight in a private quarrel because his wife’s face was slapped.” ~ |
