    “Children’s lives are not shaped solely by their families or immediate surroundings at large. That is why we must avoid the false dichotomy that says only government or only family is responsible. . . . Personal values and national policies must both play a role.”
    —Hillary Rodham Clinton (20th century)

    “Never before since Jamestown and Plymouth Rock has our American civilization been in such danger as now....

    —Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
