Our country is young.
It's not old.
We've just begun to grow.
All we need is courage,
and from out of that courage
will come a greatness greater than we ever dreamed.
We Americans are the hope of the world,
and the secret of our great plenty is freedom,
and we've got to share that secret and that plenty
with the other nations of the world.
We face a great problem —
that when people are cold and hungry and scared
they gather together in panicky herds
ready to be led by communists and fascists
who promise them bread for freedom
and deliver neither.
The secret is freedom.
True then.
True now.
True forever.
