May this country never forget that its power in this war has come from the efforts of its citizens, living in freedom and equality.
Our teamwork with our allies in this war has involved innumerable intricate problems.
I am glad to come back to Philadelphia.
This Nation cannot, must not, and will not shirk that responsibility.
We shall not again be thwarted in our will to live as a mature Nation, confronting limitless horizons.
The American people have gone through great national debates in the recent critical years.
The kind of world order which we the peace-loving Nations must achieve... must depend essentially on friendly human relations.
I like to think that the history of the Philippine Islands... provides in a very real sense a pattern for the future of other small Nations ...
There is no guarantee that opportunity will knock a third time.
Concern for our national security does not end at our borders.
I hope to come back here some day and see them play.
