The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
“ We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.” " The greatest honor history can bestow is the title of peacemaker." “ We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail.” “ The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit.” “ We will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist.” “ To those who cling to power through corruption and deceit and the silencing of dissent, know that you are on the wrong side of history.” “ This is our moment. This is our time.” “ We will not apologize for our way of life.” “ In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given.” " We cannot be separated in interest or divided in purpose." “ The American people are generous and strong.” “ I will be a president for all Americans.” “ We will build a world of freedom.” We are all Republicans, we are all Federalists. " We are all Republicans, we are all Federalists." |
