It has been kept at peace despite provocations which in other days, because of their seriousness, could well have engendered war.

re the only ultimate basis for orderly existence. Resolute in our determination to respect the rights of others, and to command respect for the rights of ourselves, we must keep ourselves adequately strong in self-defense. There is a trend in the world away from the observance both of the letter and the spirit of treaties. We propose to observe, as we have in the past, our own treaty obligations to the limit; but we cannot be certain of reciprocity on the part of others. | https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Franklin_Delano_Roosevelt%27s_Fifth_State_of_the_Union_Address | Franklin Delano Roosevelt's Fifth State of the Union Address | en.wikisource.org | 0.768 | 0.868 | ["social_justice", "negotiation", "diplomacy", "faith_spirituality"] | 475 | FDR | personality | 2026-03-02T16:18:41.410584 | [

ocracy has been discarded or has never developed. I have used the words "surface trend," for I still believe that civilized man increasingly insists and in the long run will insist on genuine participation in his own government. Our people believe that over the years democracies of the world will survive, and that democracy will be restored or established in those nations which today know it not. In that faith lies the future peace of mankind.

Events of recent months are new proof that we cannot conduct a national government after the practice of 1787, or 1837 or 1887, for the obvious reason that human needs and human desires are infinitely greater, infinitely more difficult to meet than in any previous period in the life of our Republic.

f late to absolve the Congress, the Courts or the President from that task. It faces us as squarely, as insistently, as in March, 1933. Much of trouble in our own lifetime has sprung from a long period of inaction—from ignoring what fundamentally was happening to us, and from a time-serving unwillingness to face facts as they forced themselves upon us. Our national life rests on two nearly equal producing forces, agriculture and industry, each employing about one-third of our citizens. | https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Franklin_Delano_Roosevelt%27s_Fifth_State_of_the_Union_Address | Franklin Delano Roosevelt's Fifth State of the Union Address | en.wikisource.org | 0.849 | 0.862 | ["governance", "economy"] | 490 | FDR | personality | 2026-03-02T16:18:41.410684 | [

We have not only seen minimum wage and maximum hour provisions prove their worth economically and socially under government auspices in 1933, 1934 and 1935, but the people of this country, by an overwhelming vote, are in favor of having the Congress—this Congress—put a floor below which industrial wages shall not fall, and a ceiling beyond which the hours of industrial labor shall not rise.

A part of it is sincere in believing that an effort thus to raise the purchasing power of lowest paid industrial workers is not the business of the Federal Government. Others give "lip service" to a general objective, but do not like any specific measure that is proposed. In both cases it is worth our while to wonder whether some of these opponents are not at heart opposed to any program for raising the wages of the underpaid or reducing the hours of the ove | https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Franklin_Delano_Roosevelt%27s_Fifth_State_of_the_Union_Address | Franklin Delano Roosevelt's Fifth State of the Union Address | en.wikisource.org | 0.335 | 0.888 | ["crisis", "governance"] | 512 | FDR | personality | 2026-03-02T16:18:41.411001 | [

There are many communities in the United States where the average family income is pitifully low. It is in those communities that we find the poorest educational facilities and the worst conditions of health. Why? It is not because they are satisfied to live as they do. | https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Franklin_Delano_Roosevelt%27s_Fifth_State_of_the_Union_Address | Franklin Delano Roosevelt's Fifth State of the Union Address | en.wikisource.org | 0.825 | 0.852 | ["war_conflict", "family", "education", "philosophy"] | 446 | FDR | personality | 2026-03-02T16:18:41.411059 | [

No reasonable person seeks a complete uniformity in wages in every part of the United States; nor does any reasonable person seek an immediate and drastic change from the lowest pay to the highest pay.

I hope that those who represent constituencies primarily agricultural will not underestimate the importance of extending like aid to the industrial third.

re national needs. I renew those recommendations. In relation to tax changes, three things should be kept in mind. First, the total sum to be derived by the Federal Treasury must not be decreased as a result of any changes in schedules. Second, abuses by individuals or corporations designed to escape tax-paying by using various methods of doing business, corporate and otherwise—abuses which we have sought, with great success, to end—must not be restored. | https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Franklin_Delano_Roosevelt%27s_Fifth_State_of_the_Union_Address | Franklin Delano Roosevelt's Fifth State of the Union Address | en.wikisource.org | 0.846 | 0.848 | ["communication", "salary", "rhetoric"] | 458 | FDR | personality | 2026-03-02T16:18:41.411458 | [

with great success, to end—must not be restored. Third, we should rightly change certain provisions where they are proven to work definite hardship, especially on the small business men of the Nation. But, speculative income should not be favored over earned income. It is human nature to argue that this or that tax is responsible for every ill. It is human nature on the part of those who pay graduated taxes to attack all taxes based on the principle of ability to pay. | https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Franklin_Delano_Roosevelt%27s_Fifth_State_of_the_Union_Address | Franklin Delano Roosevelt's Fifth State of the Union Address | en.wikisource.org | 0.357 | 0.866 | ["salary", "philosophy", "strategy"] | 472 | FDR | personality | 2026-03-02T16:18:41.411486 | [

They are the same complainants who would impose the type of flat sales tax which places the burden of government more on those least able to pay and less on those most able to pay.

w Jackson and Woodrow Wilson is not finished yet. The ownership of vast properties or the organization of thousands of workers creates a heavy obligation of public service. The power should not be sought or sanctioned unless the responsibility is accepted as well.

There must be proof that sectional and class interests are prepared more greatly than they are today to be national in outlook. A government can punish specific acts of spoliation; but no government can conscript cooperation.

We face this new crisis—this new threat to the security of our nation—with the same courage and realism.

We should enter upon a new and terrible era in which the whole world, our hemisphere included, would be run by threats of brute force.

Some of us like to believe that even if Britain falls, we are still safe, because of the broad expanse of the Atlantic and of the Pacific. But the width of those oceans is not what it was in the days of clipper ships. At one point between Africa and Brazil, the distance is less from Washington than it is from Washington to Denver, Colorado -- five hours for the latest type of bomber. | https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Roosevelt%27s_Fireside_Chat,_29_December_1940 | Roosevelt's Fireside Chat, 29 December 1940 - Wikisource | en.wikisource.org | 0.336 | 0.872 | ["war_conflict", "economy"] | 463 | FDR | personality | 2026-03-02T16:18:41.429796 | [

rado -- five hours for the latest type of bomber. And at the north end of the Pacific Ocean, America and Asia almost touch each other. Even today we have planes that could fly from the British Isles to New England and back again without refueling. And remember that the range of the modern bomber is ever being increased.

have told me what they wanted me to say tonight. Almost all of them expressed a courageous desire to hear the plain truth about the gravity of the situation. One telegram, however, expressed the attitude of the small minority who want to see no evil and hear no evil, even though they know in their hearts that evil exists. That telegram begged me not to tell again of the ease with which our American cities could be bombed by any hostile power which had gained bases in this Western Hemisphere. | https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Roosevelt%27s_Fireside_Chat,_29_December_1940 | Roosevelt's Fireside Chat, 29 December 1940 - Wikisource | en.wikisource.org | 0.81 | 0.88 | ["philosophy"] | 496 | FDR | personality | 2026-03-02T16:18:41.429849 | [

No man can tame a tiger into a kitten by stroking it. There can be no appeasement with ruthlessness. There can be no reasoning with an incendiary bomb.

Thinking in terms of today and tomorrow, I make the direct statement to the American people that there is far less chance of the United States getting into war, if we do all we can now to support the nations defending themselves against attack by the Axis than if we acquiesce in their defeat, submit tamely to an Axis victory, and wait our turn to be the object of attack in another war | https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Roosevelt%27s_Fireside_Chat,_29_December_1940 | Roosevelt's Fireside Chat, 29 December 1940 - Wikisource | en.wikisource.org | 0.811 | 0.894 | ["war_conflict"] | 511 | FDR | personality | 2026-03-02T16:18:41.430299 | [

In a military sense, Great Britain and the British Empire are today the spearhead of resistance to world conquest.

This job cannot be done merely by superimposing on the existing productive facilities the added requirements of the nation for defense. | https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Roosevelt%27s_Fireside_Chat,_29_December_1940 | Roosevelt's Fireside Chat, 29 December 1940 - Wikisource | en.wikisource.org | 0.843 | 0.838 | ["career"] | 428 | FDR | personality | 2026-03-02T16:18:41.430672 | [

the added requirements of the nation for defense. Our defense efforts must not be blocked by those who fear the future consequences of surplus plant capacity. The possible consequences of failure of our defense efforts now are much more to be feared. After the present needs of our defenses are past, a proper handling of the country's peace-time needs will require all the new productive capacity—if not more.

Their strength is growing. It is the strength of men and women who value their freedom more highly than they value their lives. I believe that the Axis powers are not going to win this war.

est information. We have no excuse for defeatism. We have every good reason for hope—hope for peace, hope for the defense of our civilization and for the building of a better civilization in the future. I have the profound conviction that the American people are now determined to put forth a mightier effort than they have ever yet made to increase our production of all the implements of defense, to meet the threat to our democratic faith. As President of the United States I call for that national effort. | https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Roosevelt%27s_Fireside_Chat,_29_December_1940 | Roosevelt's Fireside Chat, 29 December 1940 - Wikisource | en.wikisource.org | 0.791 | 0.878 | ["philosophy", "war_conflict", "diplomacy", "faith_spirituality"] | 509 | FDR | personality | 2026-03-02T16:18:41.430877 | [
