“Maybe it’s understandable what a history of failures America’s foreign policy has been. We are, after all, a country full of people who came to America to get away from foreigners.

“In my public statements I have earnestly urged that there rested upon government many responsibilities which affect the moral and spiritual welfare of our people.

Moreover, it is through them that our national ideals are ingrained in our children.”
—Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)
