Herbert Hoover actually said...

"He was a distinguished patron of the arts."

"His warmhearted human sympathy for all mankind resulted in munificent gifts for the advancement of public health, education, housing, and the wide reach of social amelioration."

"One of his most conspicuous contributions to the public welfare was through his humanitarian activities."

"The foundation which he created for the 'well-being of mankind' constitutes a monument to his vision, sympathy, and generosity."
