“Today we seek a moral basis for peace.... It cannot be a lasting peace if the fruit of it is oppression, or starvation, cruelty, or human life dominated by armed camps.

—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

“None who have always been free can understand the terrible fascinating power of the hope of freedom to those who are not free.”
