I don't want to see a single war millionaire created in the United States as a result of this world disaster.

And so today, in this year of war, 1945, we have learned lessons - at a fearful cost - and we shall profit by them.

We are determined to keep out of war, yet we cannot insure ourselves against the disastrous effects of war and the dangers of involvement.

We have faith that future generations will know here, in the middle of the twentieth century, there came a time when men of good will found a way to unite, and produce, and fight to destroy the forces of ignorance, and intolerance, and slavery, and war.

The United States will wage war but not declare it.

If there is anyone who still wonders why this war is being fought, let him look to Norway. If there is anyone who has any delusions that this war could have been averted, let him look to Norway.
