Franklin Roosevelt

Famous quotes containing the words franklin and/or roosevelt:

    We are not certain, we are never certain. If we were we could reach some conclusions, and we could, at last, make others take us seriously.
    In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.
    —Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790)

    It is not unkind to say, from the standpoint of scenery alone, that if many, and indeed most, of our American national parks were to be set down on the continent of Europe thousands of Americans would journey all the way across the ocean in order to see their beauties.
    —Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
