Franklin Roosevelt actually said...

"Words may be futile, but war is not the only means of commanding a decent respect for the opinions of mankind."

"I do not regard a penny of it as wasted."

"all lands of the United States within the following-described boundaries... are hereby included in and reserved as part of the Hiawatha National Forest in the State of Michigan"

"I reserve the right by virtue of the authority vested in me to revoke or modify this Proclamation as the Interests of the United States may seem to require."
