  6. A quotation from Franklin Roosevelt

    This new understanding undermines the old admiration of worldly success as such. We are beginning to abandon our tolerance of the abuse of power by those who betray for profit the elementary decencies of life.

    Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882-1945) American lawyer, politician, statesman, US President (1933-1945)
    Speech (1937-01-20), Inaugural Address, Washington, D.C.
