President Franklin D. Roosevelt
January 6, 1941
"We look forward to a world founded upon four essential human freedoms. ...
The first is freedom of speech and expression, everywhere in the world.
The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way, everywhere in the world.
The third is freedom from want, everywhere in the world.
The fourth is freedom from fear, anywhere in the world."

President John F. Kennedy
January 20, 1961
"Let every
nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any
price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose
any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty."

President George W. Bush
September 20, 2001
"Great harm has been done to us. We have suffered great loss. And in our grief and anger we have found our mission and our moment. Freedom and fear are at war. The advance of human freedom -- the great achievement of our time, and the great hope of every time -- now depends on us. Our nation -- this generation -- will lift a dark threat of violence from our people and our future. We will rally the world to this cause by our efforts, by our courage. We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail."
