Herbert Hoover actually said...

"His example and the example of your spiritual forebears challenge you who are leaders of this generation to a commensurate share in solving the hardly less difficult problems of our own day."

"An equal courage and boldness in declaring the sound principles of life and government which they helped bequeath to us."

"It will serve no good purpose and will fool no one to try to cover appearances by resorting to a so-called 'extraordinary Budget.'"

"The back of the depression cannot be broken by any single Government undertaking."
