Famous quotes containing the words perceived, indian and/or aggression:
“I have perceived much beauty
In the hoarse oaths that kept our courage straight;

Found peace where shell-storms spouted reddest spate.”

“Our security depends on the Allied Powers winning against aggressors. The Axis Powers intend to destroy democracy, it is anathema to them. We cannot provide that aid if the public are against it; therefore, it is our responsibility to persuade the public that aid to the victims of aggression is aid to American security. I expect the members of my administration to take every opportunity to speak to this issue wherever they are invited to address public forums in the weeks ahead.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
