15 January 2006 - today's quote |
In the future days, which we seek to make secure, 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, which, translated into world terms,
means economic understanding, which will secure to every nation a
healthy peacetime life for its inhabitants--everywhere in the world.
The fourth is freedom from fear, which, translated into world terms,
means a worldwide reduction of armaments to such a point and in such a
thorough fashion that no nation will be in a position to commit an act
of physical aggression against any neighbor--anywhere in the world.
--Franklin D. Roosevelt, the "Four Freedoms Speech," annual message to
Congress, Washington, District of Columbia (6 January 1941)

Looks like he forgot to mention "freedom to live in a concentration camp if
you happen to be an American of Japanese decent."

Wasn't that after the USA joined in the War?

The opinions given above may be mine. They might also
just be what I feel like saying right now, okay?

Of course. It shows how quick such lofty words are forgotten. Speaking of
that fourth freedom... FDR was the man who signed off on the creation of
the atomic bomb.
Not that I believe the creation of the bomb was a mistake.
