More from Harry Truman
"The greatest part of our population has never had a square deal economically, socially, and politically. The American way of life has not been a way of life for all Americans."
"The only thing I ever did that was really popular was to fire General MacArthur."
"If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen."
"There are some things you just have to do, whether you like them or not."
"The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do."
About Harry Truman (1884-1972)
33rd US President who ended WWII (atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki), founded NATO and the Marshall Plan, and integrated the US military. Closely associated with Franklin D. Roosevelt (his predecessor) and Dwight D. Eisenhower (his successor). For an intellectual contrast, see Henry A. Wallace, FDR's progressive Vice President (1941-1945) — Wallace was the VP Truman replaced on the 1944 ticket; Wallace's 1948 Progressive Party campaign attacked Truman from the left for starting the Cold War — the moral road not taken at the dawn of the atomic age.
