Men were fighting with tense muscles and lowered heads until they came to realize those things.

The proudest thing I have to report to you is that this great country of ours is trusted throughout the world.

It warms my heart to see a great body of my fellow-citizens again.

We set this nation up to make men free.

I have been trying my best to speak your thoughts.

I have nowhere seen the gleam of passion.

One advantage in seeing one another and talking with one another is to find that, after all, we all think the same way.

I will cooperate with great happiness in the plans that you may form after my return, and I thank you very warmly for the compliment of this personal visit.

I can only say for myself that I sincerely hope it can be.

I have often been thought of as a man more interested in principles than in practice, whereas, as a matter of fact, I can say that in one sense principles have never interested me.

At every turn we must see to it that it is not an adjustment between governments merely, but an arrangement for the peace and security of men and women everywhere.

I hope that the strain has not been in vain. I know that it has not been in vain.

Because, realizing the great confidence you place in me, I am led to question my own ability to justify that confidence.

You have not only done me a great honor, but you have touched me very much by this unexpected tribute; and may I add that you have frightened me?

France did not tremble. France waited and got ready.

America always was our friend. Now she understands.

She is fortunate to have proved her mettle as one of the champions of liberty.

France has earned and has won the brotherhood of the world.
