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."

"What you want and what I want is to restore normal employment."

"We cannot thus squander ourselves into prosperity."

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