Franklin Roosevelt actually said...

"Your Government in Washington has to keep in close touch with the Governments of the States and of the cities of the Nation."

"But, more than that, it is a great loss to the multitudes of Americans whose needs and problems were always in the forefront of his thought and action."

"I have found a Nation more greatly prosperous, more definitely on the highway to complete recovery than at any time in the past seven years."

"Taxes are the price we pay for civilized society."
