Franklin D. Roosevelt — "We shall not be content until all Americans have a decent standard of living."

"The economic ills of the world are not incurable. They are the result of the failure of men to use the vast resources of the earth for the benefit of all."

"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little."

"The greatest primary task is to put people to work. This is no unsolvable problem if we face it wisely and courageously."

"The day of enlightened administration has come."

"The American standard of living must be maintained at a high level."
