एक बहुत बड़े और आसन्न सार्वजनिक खतरे के आगे, हमारे सभी निजी प्लान और व्यक्तिगत जीवन मानो पृष्ठभूमि में चले गए हैं।

किताबों को आग में जलाकर खत्म नहीं किया जा सकता। इंसान मर जाते हैं, लेकिन किताबें कभी नहीं मरतीं। न तो कोई इंसान और न ही कोई ताकत यादों को मिटा सकती है... हम जानते हैं कि इस युद्ध में किताबें हथियार हैं। और यह आपका कर्तव्य है कि आप हमेशा उन्हें इंसानी आज़ादी का हथियार बनाए रखें।
Books can not be killed by fire. People die, but books never die. No man and no force can abolish memory... In this war, we know, books are weapons. And it is a part of your dedication always to make them weapons for man's freedom.

मैं आपसे मेहनत, साहस, बलिदान और निष्ठा की अपील करता हूँ। आज़ादी के प्रति प्रेम हो, तो ये सब मुमकिन है। और आज भी इस देश के लोगों के दिलों में आज़ादी के लिए वही जोश और जज़्बा कायम है। १० जून १९४०
I call for effort, courage, sacrifice, devotion. Granting the love of freedom, all of these are possible. And the love of freedom is still fierce and steady in the nation today. June 10, 1940

मेरा यह अटूट विश्वास है कि लोकतंत्र को कभी कमज़ोर नहीं किया जा सकता, बशर्ते हम अपने पुस्तकालयों को बचाए रखें और देश में ऐसी समझदारी विकसित करें जो उनका सही इस्तेमाल कर सके।

वोटिंग बूथ के अंदर खड़ा हर अमेरिकी पुरुष और महिला, किसी भी अन्य अमेरिकी के बिल्कुल बराबर होता है। वहाँ उनका कोई ऊंच-नीच नहीं होता। वहाँ उनके अपने मन और ज़मीर के अलावा कोई दूसरा मालिक नहीं होता।
Inside the polling booth every American man and woman stands as the equal of every other American man and woman. There they have no superiors. There they have no masters save their own minds and consciences.

आज़ादी के लिए यह ज़रूरी है कि इंसान को दो वक्त की रोटी कमाने का मौका मिले—ऐसी गरिमापूर्ण आजीविका जो उस समय के हिसाब से ठीक हो, और जो इंसान को सिर्फ जीने का जरिया ही न दे, बल्कि जीने की एक ठोस वजह भी दे।
Liberty requires opportunity to make a living--a living decent according to the standard of the time, a living which gives a man not only enough to live by, but something to live for.

युद्ध कई वजहों से होते हैं। पुरानी नफरतें होती हैं, अशांत सीमाएँ होती हैं, "पुरानी, भुलाई जा चुकी और दूर-दराज की चीज़ों की विरासत और सदियों पुरानी लड़ाइयाँ" होती हैं। नए-नए किस्म के अंधविश्वास और कट्टरताएँ पैदा हो जाती हैं। कुछ लोगों के मन में यह पक्का यकीन बैठ जाता है कि केवल वही परम सत्य और न्याय के एकमात्र रखवाले हैं।
Many causes produce war. There are ancient hatreds, turbulent frontiers, the "legacy of old forgotten, far-off things, and battles long ago." There are new-born fanaticisms. Convictions on the part of certain peoples that they have become the unique depositories of ultimate truth and right.

दो या तीन लोगों को ऐसे पदों पर बिठा दीजिए जहाँ उनके अधिकार आपस में टकराते हों। इससे वे एक-استفادہ दूसरे के खिलाफ काम करने पर मजबूर हो जाएंगे, और आपको उन पर आखिरी फैसला सुनाने का अधिकार मिल जाएगा।

भविष्य उन समझदार राजनीतिक नेताओं का है जो यह समझते हैं कि आम जनता को राजनीति से ज़्यादा सरकार के कामकाज में दिलचस्पी है। आखिरकार, मेरे बचपन के बाद से हर राष्ट्रपति चुनाव के नतीजों से यह साबित होता आया है कि मतदाताओं में आज़ाद होकर फैसला लेने की प्रवृत्ति बढ़ रही है, और सच कहूँ तो यह रुझान लगातार बढ़ता ही जा रहा है।
The future lies with those wise political leaders who realize that the great public is interested more in Government than in politics. The growing independence of voters, after all, has been proven by the votes in every Presidential election since my childhood and the tendency, frankly, is on the increase.

एक सच्चा रूढ़िवादी इंसान निजी संपत्ति और स्वतंत्र बाज़ार की व्यवस्था में आने वाली हर तरह की ज्यादतियों और असमानताओं को दूर करके उसकी रक्षा करना चाहता है। हमारी व्यवस्था के लिए सबसे बड़ा खतरा उन लोगों से है जो वक़्त के साथ बदलाव की ज़रूरत को स्वीकारने से ही इंकार कर देते हैं। ऐसे में, दूरदर्शी रूढ़िवादी के लिए उदारवाद ही ढाल बनता है।
The True conservative seeks to protect the system of private property and free enterprise by correcting such injustices and inequalities as arise from it. The most serious threat to our institutions comes from those who refuse to face the need for change. Liberalism becomes the protection for the far-sighted conservative.

अपने देश के उठने और आगे बढ़ने के इतिहास को हम बिना यह समझे नहीं पढ़ सकते कि इस गणराज्य को गढ़ने में बाइबल की क्या भूमिका रही है। इसके उपदेशों का पालन करने में हम जितने सच्चे और निष्ठावान रहे हैं, उतनी ही ज़्यादा शांति और समृद्धि हमने हासिल की है।

हम जानते हैं कि समाज में कुछ धोखेबाज़ लोग भी मौजूद होते हैं। हर आलोचना और बाधा के पीछे हमें हमेशा कोई न कोई स्वार्थी मक़सद या अपना उल्लू सीधा करने की नीयत ज़रूर मिलती है।

किया जाने वाला प्रत्येक कार्य उपयोगी होना चाहिए - केवल एक दिन या एक वर्ष के लिए नहीं, बल्कि इस अर्थ में उपयोगी होना चाहिए कि यह जीवन स्थितियों में स्थायी सुधार प्रदान करता है या राष्ट्र के लिए भविष्य की नई संपत्ति का सृजन करता है।
All work undertaken should be useful - not just for a day, or a year, but useful in the sense that it affords permanent improvement in living conditions or that it creates future new wealth for the Nation.

आर्थिक व्यवस्था के इन शाही समर्थकों ने यह मान लिया था कि राजनीतिक स्वतंत्रता सरकार का काम है, लेकिन उनका यह तर्क था कि आर्थिक गुलामी से किसी का कोई लेना-देना नहीं है। उन्होंने यह तो माना कि सरकार नागरिक को वोट देने के अधिकार की रक्षा कर सकती है, लेकिन उन्होंने इस बात से इनकार किया कि सरकार नागरिक के काम करने के अधिकार और जीने के अधिकार की रक्षा के लिए कुछ भी कर सकती है। आज हम इस बात के प्रति पूरी तरह प्रतिबद्ध हैं कि स्वतंत्रता कोई आधी-अधूरी चीज नहीं है। यदि आम नागरिक को मतदान केंद्र पर समान अवसर की गारंटी है, तो उसे बाजार में भी समान अवसर मिलना चाहिए।
The royalists of the economic order have conceded that political freedom was the business of the government, but they have maintained that economic slavery was nobody's business. They granted that the government could protect the citizen in his right to vote, but they denied that the government could do anything to protect the citizen in his right to work and his right to live. Today we stand committed to the proposition that freedom is no half-and-half affair. If the average citizen is guaranteed equal opportunity in the polling place, he must have equal opportunity in the market place.

यह महान राष्ट्र जैसा कि पहले भी टिके रहा है, वैसे ही टिका रहेगा, फिर से उठेगा और समृद्ध होगा। इसलिए, सबसे पहले, मैं अपने इस दृढ़ विश्वास को दोहराना चाहता हूँ कि हमें केवल और केवल डर से ही डरने की जरूरत है।
This great nation will endure as it has endured, will revive and will prosper. So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

धन और सत्ता का यह केंद्रीकरण दूसरों के पैसे, दूसरों के कारोबार और दूसरों की मेहनत के बल पर खड़ा किया गया है। इस केंद्रीकरण के चलते, स्वतंत्र व्यापार अमेरिकी समाज के लिए एक खतरा बन गया है।
Concentration of wealth and power has been built upon other people's money, other people's business, other people's labor. Under this concentration, independent business has been a menace to American society.

हम अलगाववादी नहीं हैं, सिवाय इसके कि हम युद्ध से पूरी तरह से अलग रहना चाहते हैं। फिर भी हमें यह याद रखना चाहिए कि जब तक धरती पर युद्ध का अस्तित्व है, तब तक यह खतरा बना रहेगा कि जो राष्ट्र शांति की सबसे तीव्र इच्छा रखता है, वह भी युद्ध में घसीटा जा सकता है।
We are not isolationists except in so far as we seek to isolate ourselves completely from war. Yet we must remember that so long as war exists on earth there will be some danger that even the Nation which most ardently desires peace may be drawn into war.

दस जून, उन्नीस सौ चालीस के इस दिन, जिस हाथ में खंजर था, उसने अपने ही पड़ोसी की पीठ में घोंप दिया है.... हमारी एकता में, हमारी अमेरिकी एकता में हम दो स्पष्ट और एक साथ कदम उठाएंगे; हम बल के विरोधियों को इस राष्ट्र के भौतिक संसाधन प्रदान करेंगे, और साथ ही हम उन संसाधनों का उपयोग करेंगे और उन्हें तेज़ करेंगे ताकि हम अमेरिकावासी किसी भी आपात स्थिति और हर रक्षा कार्य के लिए समान रूप से सुसज्जित और प्रशिक्षित हो सकें।
On this tenth day of June, nineteen hundred and forty, the hand that held the dagger has struck it into the back of its neighbor.... In our unity, in our American unity we will pursue two obvious and simultaneous courses; we will extend to the opponents of force the material resources of this nation, and at the same time we will harness and speed up the use of those resources in order that we ourselves in the Americas may have equipment and training equal to the task of any emergency and every defense.

क्या संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिका यह तय करने जा रहा है, क्या इस देश के लोग यह तय करने जा रहे हैं कि भविष्य में उनकी संघीय सरकार के पास किसी भी निहित अधिकार या अदालत द्वारा स्वीकृत अधिकार के तहत किसी राष्ट्रीय आर्थिक समस्या को सुलझाने का कोई अधिकार नहीं होगा, बल्कि उस राष्ट्रीय आर्थिक समस्या का फैसला केवल राज्यों द्वारा ही किया जाना चाहिए?... हमें लगा था कि हम इसे सुलझा रहे हैं, और अब यह सीधे हमारे मुंह पर आकर लगा है। हमें अंतर-राज्यीय व्यापार की उस पुरानी बैलगाड़ी वाली परिभाषा पर वापस धकेल दिया गया है।
Is the United States going to decide, are the people of this country going to decide that their Federal Government shall in the future have no right under any implied power or any court-approved power to enter into a solution of a national economic problem, but that that national economic problem must be decided only by the States?... We thought we were solving it, and now it has been thrown right straight in our faces. We have been relegated to the horse-and-buggy definition of interstate commerce.

एक बात पक्की है। हमें कुछ न कुछ करना ही होगा। उस समय हमें जो सबसे अच्छा तरीका समझ आएगा, हम वही करेंगे... अगर यह सही साबित नहीं होता, तो जैसे-जैसे हम आगे बढ़ेंगे, हम इसमें बदलाव कर सकते हैं।

धुरी राष्ट्रों (Axis) के पूरे प्रचार में एक बात लगातार सामने आई है। वह यह रही है कि अमेरिकी निर्विवाद रूप से अमीर हैं, कि अमेरिकियों के पास काफी औद्योगिक शक्ति है - लेकिन अमेरिकी कमज़ोर और पतित हैं, कि वे एकजुट होकर काम नहीं कर सकते और लड़ नहीं सकते। ... यह बात वे मरीन (सैनिकों) को बताएं!
There has been one persistent theme through all Axis propaganda. This theme has been that Americans are admittedly rich, that Americans have considerable industrial power - but that Americans are soft and decadent, that they cannot and will not unite and work and fight. ...

I believe that the fundamental proposition is that we must recognize that the hostilities in Europe, in Africa, and in Asia are all parts of a single world conflict. We must, consequently, recognize that our interests are menaced both in Europe and in the Far East.

हम सब जानते हैं कि किताबें जलती हैं, लेकिन हम यह भी अच्छी तरह जानते हैं कि आग से किताबों को मारा नहीं जा सकता। इंसान मर जाते हैं, लेकिन किताबें कभी नहीं मरतीं। कोई भी इंसान या ताकत विचारों को हमेशा के लिए नजरबंद (कंसेंट्रेशन कैंप में) नहीं कर सकती। कोई भी इंसान या ताकत दुनिया से उन किताबों को नहीं छीन सकती जो हर तरह की तानाशाही के खिलाफ इंसानी संघर्ष की eternal गाथा कहती हैं।
We all know that books burn, yet we have the greater knowledge that books cannot be killed by fire. People die, but books never die.

अब हम देख सकते हैं कि हम अमेरिकी अप्रस्तुत पकड़े गए थे, क्योंकि हम साधारण इंसान थे, जो उस समय उपलब्ध सर्वोत्तम सलाह का पालन कर रहे थे। कोई यह अंदाज़ा नहीं लगा सकता था कि 1941 में हम पर इस तरह असभ्य तरीके से हमला किया जाएगा। पर्ल हार्बर की कल्पना कोई नहीं कर सकता था, चाहे वह यहाँ हो या वाशिंगटन में। लेकिन अगर हम तब वह जानते जो हम आज जानते हैं, तो हम 1941 में हमले की उम्मीद करते।
We can see now that we Americans were caught unprepared, because we were ordinary human beings, following the best advice we had at the time. No one would have guessed in 1941 that we would be attacked in such an unsportsmanlike manner as we were. No one could have visualized Pearl Harbor, either out there or in Washington. But if we had known then what we know now, we would have expected an attack in 1941.

The traditional Jeffersonian principle of religious freedom was so broadly democratic that it included the right to have no religion at all - it gave to the individual the right to worship any God he chose or no god.

आज हमारे देश के लिए धार्मिक भावनाओं का पुनरुत्थान होना किसी वरदान से कम नहीं होगा। मुझे संदेह है कि आज दुनिया में कोई भी ऐसी सामाजिक, राजनीतिक या आर्थिक समस्या होगी जिसका समाधान 'पहाड़ पर दिए गए उपदेश' (सर्मन ऑन द माउंट) की भावना से न निकाला जा सके।
No greater blessing could come to our land today than a revival of the spirit of religion. I doubt if there is any problem in the world today -- social, political, or economic -- that would not find happy solution if approached in the spirit of the Sermon on the Mount.

हम यह मानते हैं कि कुछ लोगों में दूसरों की तुलना में अधिक कमाने की क्षमता होती है। लेकिन हम इस बात पर भी जोर देते हैं कि एक उचित सुरक्षा पाने की व्यक्ति की महत्वाकांक्षा, अपार धन और सत्ता की लालसा से कहीं अधिक महत्वपूर्ण और बेहतर है।
We continue to recognize the greater ability of some to earn more than others. But we do assert that the ambition of the individual to obtain for him a proper security is an ambition to be preferred to the appetite for great wealth and great power.

अगर हमने आयोगों और विनियामक निकायों (regulatory bodies) के गठन के इस सिलसिले को और संविधान के हर एक साधारण प्रावधान पर उल्टे खड़े पिरामिड की तरह बने इन विशेष कानूनों को नहीं रोका, तो हम जल्द ही अरबों डॉलर और पानी की तरह बहा रहे होंगे।
If we do not halt this steady process of building commissions and regulatory bodies and the special legislation like huge inverted pyramids over every one of the simple constitutional provisions, we shall soon be spending many billions of dollars more.

आप में से जो लोग वहाँ [हैती] गए हैं, वे जानते हैं कि यह दुनिया के सबसे खूबसूरत देशों में से एक है। वहाँ सब कुछ है। ज़मीन के ऊपर भी और ज़मीन के नीचे भी... यह एक अद्भुत जगह है। मैं दृढ़ता से अनुशंसा करता हूँ कि जब भी आपको मौका मिले, अगर आप वहाँ नहीं गए हैं, तो हैती ज़रूर जाएँ। मुझे लगता है कि इंग्लैंड की किसी रानी ने कहा था कि उनकी मौत के बाद उनके दिल पर 'कले Calais' लिखा हुआ मिलेगा। जब मेरी मौत होगी, तो मुझे लगता है कि मेरे दिल पर 'हैती' लिखा होगा।
Those of you who have been there [Haiti] know it is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. It has everything. It has everything above the ground, and everything under the ground.... It is an amazing place. I strongly recommend that whenever you get a chance, if you haven't been there, that you go to Haiti. I think it was a certain Queen of England who said that after her death "Calais" would be found written on her heart. When I die, I think that "Haiti" is going to be written on my heart.

काफी हद तक आविष्कार, और यांत्रिक तथा कलात्मक सृजन की उपलब्धियां सरकारी होने के बजाय व्यक्तिगत होनी चाहिए और यह जरूरी भी है और सही भी। हर क्षेत्र में वह आत्मनिर्भर अग्रणी व्यक्ति ही राह बनाता है जिस पर चलकर अमेरिकी सभ्यता यहाँ तक पहुँची है। ऐसा व्यक्तिगत प्रयास ही अमेरिका का गौरव है।
To a great extent the achievements of invention, of mechanical and of artistic creation, must of necessity, and rightly, be individual rather than governmental.

कई देशों के लोगों को गरीबी और भुखमरी की हद तक कर (टैक्स) चुकाना पड़ रहा है ताकि सरकारें हथियारों की एक पागल अंधी दौड़ में लगी रह सकें, और अगर यह जारी रही, तो इसका परिणाम युद्ध हो सकता है। विश्व की शांति के लिए यह गंभीर खतरा किसी भी तरह से विनाश के हथियारों के निर्माताओं और व्यापारियों की बेलगाम गतिविधियों से कम नहीं है, और सभी देशों के लोगों को मिलकर इसके खिलाफ एकजुट कार्रवाई करनी होगी।
The peoples of many countries are being taxed to the point of poverty and starvation in order to enable Governments to engage in a mad race in armament which, if permitted to continue, may well result in war. This grave menace to the peace of the world is due in no small measure to the uncontrolled activities of the manufacturers and merchants of engines of destruction, and it it must be met by the concerted actions of the peoples of all Nations.

मेरे प्यारे अमेरिकियों: कल रात जब मैंने रोम के पतन के बारे में आपसे बात की थी, तो मैं उसी पल जानता था कि संयुक्त राष्ट्र अमेरिका और हमारे सहयोगियों की सेनाएँ एक अन्य और उससे भी बड़े अभियान के तहत चैनल पार कर रही हैं। और अब तक यह अभियान सफल भी रहा है। इसलिए, इस गंभीर और भावुक घड़ी में, मैं आपसे प्रार्थना में शामिल होने का आग्रह करता हूँ: सर्वशक्तिमान ईश्वर: हमारे बेटे, जो हमारे राष्ट्र का गौरव हैं, आज एक महान प्रयास में जुटे हैं—एक ऐसा संघर्ष जो हमारे गणतंत्र, हमारे धर्म और हमारी सभ्यता की रक्षा के लिए है...
My fellow Americans: Last night when I spoke with you about the fall of Rome, I knew at that moment that the troops of the United States and our allies were crossing the channel in another and greater operation. It has come to pass with success thus far. And so, in this poignant hour, I ask you to join me in prayer: Almighty God: Our sons, pride of our nation, this day have set upon a mighty endeavor, a struggle to preserve our Republic, our religion, and our civilization. . .

सच्चाई यह है कि—जैसा कि आप और मैं दोनों जानते हैं—एंड्रयू जैक्सन के समय से ही बड़े वित्तीय घरानों का सरकार पर कब्जा रहा है—और इसमें मैं डब्ल्यू. डब्ल्यू. (वुडरो विल्सन) के प्रशासन को पूरी तरह से अलग नहीं कर रहा हूँ। देश जैक्सन की बैंक ऑफ द यूनाइटेड स्टेट्स के खिलाफ लड़ाई के दौर से ही गुजर रहा है—बस इस बार इसका दायरा और पैमाना बहुत बड़ा है।
The real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the larger centers has owned the Government ever since the days of Andrew Jackson - and I am not wholly excepting the Administration of W. W. The country is going through a repetition of Jackson's fight with the Bank of the United States - only on a far bigger and broader basis.

रणबांकुरों की तरह मोर्चों पर खड़े होकर अपने सिद्धांतों के लिए जान दे देना वीरता है, लेकिन मैदान में उतरकर अपने सिद्धांतों की खातिर लड़ना और जीत हासिल करना वीरता से भी कुछ बढ़कर है।

एक सच्ची पैन-अमेरिकन भावना के आवश्यक गुण वही होने चाहिए जो एक अच्छे पड़ोसी के होते हैं; यानी आपसी समझ, और उस समझ के जरिए दूसरे के दृष्टिकोण की सराहना करना। केवल इसी तरह से हम एक ऐसी व्यवस्था बनाने की उम्मीद कर सकते हैं जिसकी नींव आपसी विश्वास, मित्रता और सद्भावना पर टिकी हो।
The essential qualities of a true Pan Americanism must be the same as those which constitute a good neighbor; namely, mutual understanding, and through such understanding, a sympathetic appeciation of the other's point of view. It is only in this manner that we can hope to build up a system of which confidence, friendship, and good will are the cornerstones.

और फिर भी हमारी यह मुसीबत किसी चीज़ की कमी के कारण नहीं है। हम पर टिड्डी दल जैसी कोई महामारी नहीं टूटी है। हमारे पूर्वजों ने जिन खतरों पर विजय प्राप्त की थी, क्योंकि वे विश्वास रखते थे और डरते नहीं थे, उनकी तुलना में आज भी हमारे पास शुक्रगुजार होने के लिए बहुत कुछ है। प्रकृति आज भी अपनी उदारता बनाए हुए है और मानवीय प्रयासों ने उसमें इज़ाफ़ा किया है। खुशहाली हमारे दरवाजे पर दस्तक दे रही है, लेकिन प्रचुरता के सामने ही उसका खुलकर उपयोग करने की भावना कमजोर पड़ रही है।
And yet our distress comes from no failure of substance. We are stricken by no plague of locusts. Compared with the perils which our forefathers conquered, because they believed and were not afraid, we have still much to be thankful for. Nature still offers her bounty and human efforts have multiplied it. Plenty is at our doorstep, but a generous use of it languishes in the very sight of the supply.

युद्ध की घोषणा बूढ़े लोग करते हैं, लेकिन लड़ना और जान तो युवाओं को ही देनी पड़ती है। और युद्ध के बाद बचे अंधकार, दुख और विजय के परिणामों को भी युवाओं को ही भुगतना पड़ता है।

मैंने एक अखबार में पढ़ा कि मेरा स्वागत किसी विदेशी शासक को दिए जाने वाले सभी राजकीय सम्मानों के साथ किया जाएगा। मैं इन सम्मानों के लिए आभारी हूँ; लेकिन मेरे भीतर कहीं न कहीं 'विदेशी' शब्द को लेकर विरोध था। मैं ऐसा इसलिए कह रहा हूँ क्योंकि जब भी मैं कनाडा में रहा हूँ, मैंने कभी किसी कतई कनाडाई को किसी अमेरिकी को 'विदेशी' कहते नहीं सुना। वह सिर्फ एक 'अमेरिकी' होता है। और इसी तरह, संयुक्त राष्ट्र अमेरिका में भी कनाडाई 'विदेशी' नहीं, बल्कि 'कनाडाई' होते हैं। यह छोटा सा साधारण सा फर्क मेरे लिए हमारे दोनों देशों के आपसी संबंधों को सबसे अच्छे ढंग से दर्शाता है।
I read in a newspaper that I was to be received with all the honors customarily rendered to a foreign ruler. I am grateful for the honors; but something within me rebelled at that word 'foreign'. I say this because when I have been in Canada, I have never heard a Canadian refer to an American as a 'foreigner'. He is just an 'American'. And, in the same way, in the United States, Canadians are not 'foreigners', they are 'Canadians'. That simple little distinction illustrates to me better than anything else the relationship between our two countries.

धर्म, मनुष्य को ईश्वर के साथ उसके संबंध का पाठ पढ़ाकर, व्यक्ति को उसके अपने आत्म-सम्मान का अहसास कराता है और अपने पड़ोसियों का सम्मान करके खुद का सम्मान करना सिखाता है।

इंसान के जीवन में एक ऐसा समय भी आता है जब उसे केवल अपने घरों की ही नहीं, बल्कि आस्था और मानवता के उन सिद्धांतों की रक्षा के लिए तैयार रहना पड़ता है जिन पर उनके चर्च, उनकी सरकारें और उनकी मूल नींव टिकी हैं। धर्म, लोकतंत्र और राष्ट्रों के बीच आपसी सदभाव की रक्षा करना—यह सब एक ही लड़ाई है। इनमें से किसी एक को बचाने के लिए, अब हमें इन सबको बचाने का संकल्प लेना होगा।
There comes a time in the affairs of men when they must prepare to defend not their homes alone but the tenets of faith and humanity on which their churches, their governments and their very foundations are set.

लोकतंत्र की स्वतंत्रता तब तक सुरक्षित नहीं है जब तक जनता किसी निजी ताकत को इतना बढ़ने देती है कि वह लोकतांत्रिक राज्य से भी ज़्यादा ताकतवर बन जाए। अपनी मूल भावना में यही फासीवाद है: सरकार पर किसी एक व्यक्ति, किसी समूह या किसी प्रभावशाली निजी ताकत का कब्ज़ा हो जाना।
The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerated the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.

आइए हम कभी न भूलें कि सरकार कोई बाहरी ताकत नहीं बल्कि हम खुद हैं। हमारे लोकतंत्र के असली शासक कोई राष्ट्रपति, सीनेटर, सांसद या सरकारी अधिकारी नहीं, बल्कि इस देश के आम मतदाता हैं।
Let us never forget that government is ourselves and not an alien power over us. The ultimate rulers of our democracy are not a President and Senators and Congressmen and Government officials but the voters of this country.

हमें शांति के पुराने दुश्मनों - व्यावसायिक और वित्तीय एकाधिकार, सट्टेबाजी, लापरवाह बैंकिंग, वर्ग संघर्ष, क्षेत्रवाद और युद्ध में मुनाफाखोरी - से मुकाबला करना पड़ा था। इन ताकतों ने संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिका की सरकार को अपनी ही जागीर का एक हिस्सा समझना शुरू कर दिया था। आज हम अच्छी तरह जानते हैं कि संगठित धनपतियों द्वारा चलाई जाने वाली सरकार उतनी ही खतरनाक है जितना कि संगठित भीड़ का शासन। हमारे पूरे इतिहास में ऐसा कभी नहीं हुआ कि ये ताकतें किसी एक उम्मीदवार के खिलाफ इस तरह एकजुट हुई हों जितनी आज हैं। वे सब मिलकर मुझसे नफरत करने में एक हैं - और मैं उनकी इस नफरत का स्वागत करता हूँ।
We had to struggle with the old enemies of peace - business and financial monopoly, speculation, reckless banking, class antagonism, sectionalism, war profiteering. They had begun to consider the Government of the United States as a mere appendage to their own affairs. We know now that Government by organized money is just as dangerous as Government by organized mob. Never before in all our history have these forces been so united against one candidate as they stand today. They are unanimous in their hate for me - and I welcome their hatred.

मैंने युद्ध को करीब से देखा है। मैंने ज़मीन और समंदर, दोनों जगहों पर युद्ध का तांडव देखा है। मैंने घायलों के शरीर से बहता खून देखा है। मैंने सैनिकों को ज़हरीली गैस से अपने फेफड़ों को खांसते हुए बाहर निकालते देखा है। मैंने कीचड़ में सने लाशों को देखा है। मैंने शहरों को तबाह होते देखा है। मैंने 200 ऐसे लंगड़ाते, थके-हारे सैनिकों को मोर्चे से लौटते देखा है—जो 48 घंटे पहले 1000 सैनिकों की एक रेजिमेंट के रूप में आगे बढ़े थे। मैंने बच्चों को भूखों मरते देखा है। मैंने माताओं और पत्नियों की तड़प को महसूस किया है। मैं युद्ध से नफरत करता हूँ।
I have seen war. I have seen war on land and sea. I have seen blood running from the wounded. I have seen men coughing out their gassed lungs. I have seen the dead in the mud. I have seen cities destroyed. I have seen 200 limping, exhausted men come out of line—the survivors of a regiment of 1,000 that went forward 48 hours before. I have seen children starving. I have seen the agony of mothers and wives. I hate war.

Humein loktantra ka sabse bada hathiyar banna hoga. Hamare liye yeh yuddh jitna hi gambhir sankat hai. Humein apne is kaam mein waisi hi dridhta, waisi hi tatparta, aur deshbhakti tatha balidan ki waisi hi bhavna dikhani hogi jaisi hum yuddh ke samay dikhate.

The value of love will always be stronger than the value of hate. Any nation or group of nations which employs hatred eventually is torn to pieces by hatred.

ये तथाकथित आर्थिक सम्राट शिकायत करते हैं कि हम अमेरिका की संस्थाओं को उखाड़ फेंकना चाहते हैं। लेकिन उनकी असली शिकायत यह है कि हम उनकी ताकत छीनना चाहते हैं। अमेरिकी संस्थाओं के प्रति हमारी निष्ठा मांग करती है कि इस तरह की ताकत को खत्म किया जाए। वे बेकार में झंडे और संविधान के पीछे छुपने की कोशिश करते हैं। अपनी अंधी स्वार्थपरता में वे भूल जाते हैं कि झंडा और संविधान असल में किस बात का प्रतीक हैं।
These economic royalists complain that we seek to overthrow the institutions of America. What they really complain of is that we seek to take away their power. Our allegiance to American institutions requires the overthrow of this kind of power. In vain they seek to hide behind the flag and the Constitution.

Antatah, kaam ki vapisi ki disha mein aage badhte hue humein purani vyavastha ki buraiyon se bachne ke liye do suraksha kavacho ki aavashyakta hai: sabhi banking, credit aur nivesh par sakht nigrani honi chahiye; doosron ke paise par satta aur speculation ka ant hona chahiye; aur paryapt lekin mazboot currency ki vyavastha honi chahiye.
Finally, in our progress toward a resumption of work we require two safeguards against a return of the evils of the old order: there must be a strict supervision of all banking and credits and investments; there must be an end to speculation with other people's money, and there must be provision for an adequate but sound currency.

Democratic Party (डिमॉक्रेटिक पार्टी) तब तक जीवित रहेगी और उसे अमेरिकियों का बहुमत समर्थन मिलता रहेगा, जब तक वह एक उदारवादी (लिबरल) पार्टी बनी रहती है।
The Democratic Party will live and continue to receive the support of the majority of Americans just so long as it remains a liberal party.

Hum apne upar hue hamle ke swaroop ko hamesha yaad rakhenge. Chahe hume is purv-niyojit akraman par vijay pane mein kitna bhi samay lage, American janata apni dharmik shakti ke sath poori vijay praapt karegi.... hum na sirf ant tak apna bachav karenge, balki yeh bhi sunishchit karenge ki is tarah ka vishwasghat kabhi dobara hume sankat mein na dale.
Always will we remember the character of the onslaught against us. No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory.... we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost, but will make very certain that this form of treachery shall never endanger us again.

निरंतर आज़ादी का एकमात्र पक्का सुरक्षा कवच वह सरकार है जो जनता के हितों की रक्षा करने में सक्षम हो, और वह जनता है जो सरकार पर अपना संप्रभु नियंत्रण बनाए रखने के लिए काफ़ी मज़दूर और जागरूक हो।
The only sure bulwark of continuing liberty is a government strong enough to protect the interests of the people, and a people strong enough and well enough informed to maintain its sovereign control over the goverment.

Hum ek aisi Supreme Court chahte hain jo Samvidhan ke antargat nyay kare—uski seemaon ke upar hokar nahi. Hum apni adadalton mein vyaktiyon ki nahi balki kanoono ki sarkar chahte hain.
We want a Supreme Court which will do justice under the Constitution - not over it. In our courts we want a government of laws and not of men.

हम एक ऐसी दुनिया की उम्मीद करते हैं जो मानवीय आज़ादी के चार बुनियादी स्तंभों पर टिकी हो। पहली है बोलने और अपनी बात रखने की आज़ादी। दूसरी है हर व्यक्ति को अपने तरीके से ईश्वर की आराधना करने की आज़ादी। तीसरी है अभाव से मुक्ति। चौथी है भय से मुक्ति।
We look forward to a world founded upon four essential human freedoms. The first is freedom of speech and expression. The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way. The third is freedom from want. The fourth is freedom from fear.

Agar doosre desho mein swatantrata aur nagrik azadi ki aag dheemi pad rahi hai toh hume apne desh mein ise aur tej karna hoga. Agar doosre desho mein press, kitabein aur har tarah ka sahitya censored kiya ja raha hai toh hume unhein azad rakhne ke liye yahan apne prayas dugne karne honge. Agar doosre desho mein atit ke shashwat satya asahishnuta se khatre mein hain toh hume unke bachav ke liye ek surakshit sthan pradan karna hoga.
If the fires of freedom and civil liberties burn low in other lands they must be made brighter in our own. If in other lands the press and books and literature of all kinds are censored we must redouble our efforts here to keep them free. If in other lands the eternal truths of the past are threatened by intolerance we must provide a safe place for their perpetuation.

Senate mein Arms Embargo Law ko radd karane ke liye chhah hafte ki bahas karni padi thi—aur vartaman satra mein hamein aur bhi deri ka samna karna pad raha hai kyunki Congress ke adhiktar sadasy agle patjhad ke chunav ke bare mein soch rahe hain. Halanki, yeh un kimoaton mein se ek hai jo hum loktantra mein rehne wale logon ko chukani padti hain. Phir bhi, yeh keemat chukane layak hai, agar hum sab us tarah ki sarkar se bach sakein jiske tehat Germany aur Russia ki durbhagyapurna janata ko jeena padta hai.
It took six weeks of debate in the Senate to get the Arms Embargo Law repealed--and we face other delays during the present session because most of the Members of the Congress are thinking in terms of next Autumn's election. However, that is one of the prices that we who live in democracies have to pay. It is, however, worth paying, if all of us can avoid the type of government under which the unfortunate population of Germany and Russia must exist.

Hamare rashtriya parkon jaisa American kuch bhi nahi hai. Yahan ka prakritik saundarya aur vanya jeev yahin ke hain. Parkon ke piche ka mool vichar bhi yahin ka hai. Sankshipt mein, yeh ki desh janata ka hai, ki yeh hum sab ke jeevan ko samridh banane ki prakriya mein hai. Park is mahan manviya siddhant ke bahari prateek ke roop mein khade hain.
There is nothing so American as our national parks. The scenery and the wildlife are native. The fundamental idea behind the parks is native. It is, in brief, that the country belongs to the people, that it is in process of making for the enrichment of the lives of all of us. The parks stand as the outward symbal of the great human principle.

इतिहास गवाह है कि तानाशाही किसी मज़दूर और सफल सरकार से नहीं, बल्कि कमज़ोर और लाचार सरकारों से पैदा होती है। यदि लोकतांत्रिक तरीकों से जनता को एक ऐसी सरकार मिल जाती है जो उन्हें डर और भुखमरी से बचा सके, तो उनका लोकतंत्र सफल होता है; लेकिन यदि ऐसा नहीं होता, तो उनका सब्र टूटने लगता है। इसलिए, लगातार आज़ादी का एकमात्र पक्का सुरक्षा कवच एक ऐसी सरकार है जो जनता के हितों की रक्षा करने में सक्षम हो, और एक ऐसी जनता जो सरकार पर अपना नियंत्रण बनाए रखने के लिए काफ़ी जागरूक और मज़दूर हो।
History proves that dictatorships do not grow out of strong and successful governments, but out of weak and helpless ones. If by democratic methods people get a government strong enough to protect them from fear and starvation, their democracy succeeds; but if they do not, they grow impatient. Therefore, the only sure bulwark of continuing liberty is a government strong enough to protect the interests of the people, and a people strong enough and well enough informed to maintain its sovereign control over its government.

और भी चौंकाने वाली बात यह है कि यदि उद्योगों के केंद्रीकरण की रफ़्तार यही रही, तो अगले एक सदी के अंत तक सारा अमेरिकी उद्योग महज़ एक दर्जन निगमों के नियंत्रण में होगा और शायद सौ आदमियों द्वारा चलाया जा रहा होगा। सीधी बात कहें तो, हम आर्थिक तानाशाही की तरफ़ तेज़ी से बढ़ रहे हैं, यदि हम पहले से ही वहाँ नहीं पहुँच चुके हैं।
More striking still, it appeared that, if the process of concentration goes on at the same rate, at the end of another century we shall have all American industry controlled by a dozen corporations and run by perhaps a hundred men. Put plainly, we are steering a steady course toward economic oligarchy, if we are not there already.

Lakho log jo aabhav mein hain, ve hamesha chupchap khade nahi rahenge jabki unki zarooraton ko poora karne wali cheezein bilkul paas mein hi hon.
The country needs and, unless I mistake its temper, the country demands bold, persistent experimentation. It is common sense to take a method and try it; if it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something. The millions who are in want will not stand by silently forever while the things to satisfy their needs are within easy reach.

Governments can err, Presidents do make mistakes, but the immortal Dante tells us that divine justice weighs the sins of the cold-blooded and the sins of the warm-hearted in different scales. Better the occasional faults of a Government that lives in a spirit of charity than the constant omission of a Government frozen in the ice of its own indifference.

Your profits are going to be cut down to a reasonably low level by taxation. Your income will be subject to higher taxes. Indeed in these days, when every available dollar should go to the war effort, I do not think that any American citizen should have a net income in excess of $25,000 per year after payment of taxes.

No greater tragedy exists in modern civilization than the aged, worn-out worker who after a life of ceaseless effort and useful productivity must look forward for his declining years to a poorhouse. A modern social consciousness demands a more humane and efficient arrangement.

I pledge you, pledge myself, to a New Deal for the American people. Let us all here assembled constitute ourselves prophets of a new order of competence and of courage.

Roosevelt parivar ki urja ka ek karan—shayad sabhi se bada—unka behad loktantrik swabhav hai. Unhone kabhi yeh nahi mehsoos kiya ki kyunki unka janm ek acche parivar mein hua hai, isiliye ve apni jeebh mein hath daal kar safal ho sakte hain. Balki unhone yeh mehsoos kiya ki ek acche parivar mein janm lene ke baad bhi agar ve samaj ke prati apne kartavya ko pura nahi karte, toh unke liye koi bahana nahi hai.
One reason--perhaps the chief--of the virility of the Roosevelts is [their] very democratic spirit. They have never felt that because they were born in a good position they could put their hands in their pockets and succeed. They have felt, rather, that being born in a good position, there is no excuse for them if they did not do their duty by the community.

यह सच है कि हमारी अपनी मुश्किलें हैं; लेकिन 1932 के मुकाबले आज हम एक ज़्यादा समझदार और मज़बूत राष्ट्र हैं। इतिहास में कभी भी आंतरिक सुरक्षा के लिए इतने बड़े पैमाने पर छह साल तक तैयारियां नहीं हुईं। और यह सब किसी तानाशाह के हुक्म के बिना, श्रम की जबरन वसूली या पूंजी की जब्ती के बिना, एकाग्रता शिविरों (कंसंट्रेशन कैंप) के बिना और अभिव्यक्ति की स्वतंत्रता, प्रेस की स्वतंत्रता या किसी अन्य नागरिक अधिकार को एक खरोंच तक पहुँचाए बिना किया गया है।
We have our difficulties, true; but we are a wiser and a tougher nation than we were in 1932. Never have there been six years of such far flung internal preparedness in all of history. And this has been done without any dictator's power to command, without conscription of labor or confiscation of capital, without concentration camps and without a scratch on freedom of speech, freedom of the press or the rest of the Bill of Rights.

What worries me, especially, is that public opinion over here is patting itself on the back every morning and thanking God for theAtlantic Ocean (and the Pacific Ocean). We greatly underestimate the serious implications to our own future.... Things move with such terrific speed these days, that it is really essential to us to think in broader terms and, in effect, to warn the American people that they, too, should think of possible ultimate results in Europe and the Far East.

Things move with such terrific speed these days, that it is really essential to us to think in broader terms and, in effect, to warn the American people that they, too, should think of possible ultimate results in Europe and the Far East.
आइए हम कभी न भूलें कि सरकार कोई हमारे ऊपर थोपी गई बाहरी ताकत नहीं, बल्कि हम खुद हैं।
Let us never forget that government is ourselves and not an alien power over us.

यह उस साहस के साथ आगे बढ़ रहा है जो तूफ़ान से भी ज़्यादा मज़बूत है। यह उस दयालुता के साथ आगे बढ़ रहा है जो मौत के सामने भी नहीं डरती। यह इस बात के प्रमाण, प्रतीक और गवाही के रूप में आगे बढ़ रहा है कि इंसान को ईश्वर के स्वरूप में बनाया गया है और ब्रिटिश जाति में वीरता और सदाचार अभी समाप्त नहीं हुए हैं।
It drives on with a courage which is stronger than the storm. It drives on with a mercy which does not quail in the presence of death. It drives on as proof, a symbol, a testimony that man is created in the image of God and that valour and virtue have not perished in the British race.

Social Security Act (सोशल सिक्योरिटी एक्ट) हमारे सभी नागरिकों को वर्तमान की ज़रूरी ज़रूरतों को पूरा करने और भविष्य की अनिश्चितताओं से निपटने का एक व्यावहारिक और कारगर तरीका प्रदान करता है। यह राष्ट्र के आम कल्याण और आर्थिक स्थिरता को बढ़ावा देने के लिए हमारे संघीय-राज्य शासन की जानी-पहचानी व्यवस्था का उपयोग करता है।
The Social Security Act offers to all our citizens a workable and working method of meeting urgent present needs and of forestalling future need. It utilizes the familiar machinery of our Federal-State government to promote the common welfare and the economic stability of the Nation.

अगर हम इस मंदी से खुद को बेवकूफ़ बनाकर बाहर निकाल सकते हैं, तो आने वाले सालों में यह शब्द अमेरिकी लोगों के दिलों में हमेशा के लिए बस जाएगा।

'धरती पर शांति, मनुष्यों के बीच सद्भाव' - लोकतंत्र को इस संदेश से जुड़े रहना चाहिए। क्योंकि मेरा यह दृढ़ विश्वास है कि लोकतंत्र उस सच्ची धर्म-भावना के बिना जीवित नहीं रह सकता जो किसी राष्ट्र को न्याय की समझ और नैतिक उद्देश्य देती है।
'Peace on earth, good will toward men' - democracy must cling to that message. For it is my deep conviction that democracy cannot live without that true religion which gives a nation a sense of justice and moral purpose.

उग्रवादी वह व्यक्ति है जिसके दोनों पैर हवा में मजबूती से टिके होते हैं। रूढ़िवादी वह इंसान है जिसके पास दो बिल्कुल सही पैर तो हैं, लेकिन उसने कभी आगे बढ़ना नहीं सीखा। प्रतिक्रियावादी एक ऐसा नींद में चलने वाला इंसान है जो पीछे की ओर चलता है। उदारवादी वह व्यक्ति है जो अपने दिमाग के इशारे पर अपने हाथ-पैर चलाता है
A radical is a man with both feet firmly planted-in the air. A conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs, who, however, has never learned to walk forward. A reactionary is a somnambulist walking backwards. A liberal is a man who uses his legs and hands at the behest of his head.

जहाँ एकमात्र सोच संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिका का कल्याण हो, वहाँ किसी भी प्रकार की कड़वाहट या नफरत के लिए कोई जगह नहीं होनी चाहिए। कोई भी व्यक्ति राष्ट्रपति के पद पर रहकर यह महसूस किए बिना नहीं रह सकता कि वह सभी नागरिकों का राष्ट्रपति है
There should be no bitterness or hate where the sole thought is the welfare of the United States of America. No man can occupy the office of President without realizing that he is President of all the people.

युद्ध के अंत से भी बढ़कर, हम सभी युद्धों के शुरू होने के कारणों का अंत चाहते हैं। हाँ, सरकारों के बीच मतभेदों को सुलझाने के इस क्रूर, अमानवीय और पूरी तरह से अव्यवहारिक तरीके का अंत होना चाहिए। वह कभी शक्तिशाली और दुर्भावनापूर्ण नाज़ी राज्य अब बिखर रहा है; जापानी युद्ध-प्रभु अपनी ही धरती पर उस सज़ा को भुगत रहे हैं जिसकी भीख उन्होंने पर्ल हार्बर पर हमला करके मांगी थी। लेकिन हमारे दुश्मनों की महज़ जीत ही काफी नहीं है; हमें उन शंकाओं और डरों, अज्ञानता और लालच को हराने के लिए अपनी पूरी ताकत लगा देनी होगी, जिनकी वजह से यह भयानक त्रासदी संभव हुई थी।
More than an end to war, we want an end to the beginnings of all wars. Yes, an end to this brutal, inhuman and thoroughly impractical method of settling the differences between Governments. The once powerful malignant Nazi state is crumbling; the Japanese warlords are receiving in their homelands the retribution for which they asked when they attacked Pearl Harbor. But the mere conquest of our enemies is not enough; we must go on to do all in our power to conquer the doubts and the fears, the ignorance and the greed, which made this horror possible.

दुनिया में सबसे अकेलापन महसूस तब होता है जब आपको लगे कि आप आगे-आगे चल रहे हैं और पीछे मुड़कर देखने पर पता चले कि कोई आपके साथ नहीं आ रहा है। जो भी राष्ट्रपति जनभावनाओं को बुरी तरह भांपने में चूक जाता है, वह ज्यादा समय तक टिक नहीं पाता

विदेशी युद्धों और विदेशी झंझटों से खुद को दूर रखने का हमारा राष्ट्रीय संकल्प हमें इस बात से नहीं रोक सकता कि जब हमारे द्वारा माने जाने वाले आदर्शों और सिद्धांतों को चुनौती दी जाए, तो हम गहरी चिंता महसूस न करें।
Our national determination to keep free of foreign wars and foreign entanglements cannot prevent us from feeling deep concern when ideals and principles that we have cherished are challenged.

उद्देश्यों को तरीकों के साथ भ्रमित न करें। जब राष्ट्र सभ्यता के व्यापक उद्देश्यों की योजना बनाने के पक्ष में काफी हद तक एकजुट हो जाता है, तो सच्ची नेतृत्व क्षमता को चाहिए कि वह एक निश्चित तरीकों के पीछे सोच को एकजुट करे।

अपने उद्घाटन भाषण में मैंने यह सीधा सा प्रस्ताव रखा था कि इस देश में कोई भी भूखा नहीं मरेगा। मुझे यह बात भी उतनी ही स्पष्ट लगती है कि किसी भी ऐसे व्यवसाय को इस देश में बने रहने का कोई अधिकार नहीं है जो अपने अस्तित्व के लिए अपने कामगारों को गुजर-बसर लायक मजदूरी से भी कम भुगतान करने पर निर्भर हो। "व्यवसाय" से मेरा मतलब संपूर्ण वाणिज्य और संपूर्ण उद्योग से है; कामगारों से मेरा मतलब सभी कामगारों से है, चाहे वे दफ्तर में काम करने वाले हों या नीले कपड़ों (फैक्ट्री) में काम करने वाले; और गुजर-बसर लायक मजदूरी से मेरा मतलब केवल जिंदा रहने भर के स्तर से नहीं है—मेरा मतलब एक अदृश्य और सम्मानित जीवन जीने वाली मजदूरी से है
In my Inaugural I laid down the simple proposition that nobody is going to starve in this country. It seems to me to be equally plain that no business which depends for existence on paying less than living wages to its workers has any right to continue in this country. By "business" I mean the whole of commerce as well as the whole of industry; by workers I mean all workers, the white collar class as well as the men in overalls; and by living wages I mean more than a bare subsistence level - I mean the wages of decent living.

हमारी नीति अटलांटिक और प्रशांत महासागर के पार अभी भी आक्रामकता का विरोध कर रहे राष्ट्रों को हर संभव भौतिक सहायता देने की है। और हम इसे पूरी तरह से स्पष्ट कर देते हैं कि हम तुष्टिकरण (अप्रीजमेंट) की किसी भी घातक भूल को दोहराना नहीं चाहते। हमारा मानना है कि राज्यों के इस देश में हमने वह तरीका ढूंढ लिया है जिससे कई नस्लीय मूल के लोग शांति से एक साथ रह सकते हैं। यदि समग्र रूप से मानव जाति को जीवित रहना है, तो दुनिया को ऐसा तरीका ढूंढना होगा जिससे मनुष्य और राष्ट्र शांति के साथ एक-साथ रह सकें। हम इस सिद्धांत को स्वीकार नहीं कर सकते कि युद्ध हमेशा के लिए मनुष्य की नियति का हिस्सा होना चाहिए।

If the human race as a whole is to survive, the world must find a way by which men and nations may live together in peace.

यदि राष्ट्र अपनी आय के भीतर जी रहा है, तो उसकी साख अच्छी है। यदि कुछ संकटों के समय वह एक-दो साल अपनी आय से अधिक खर्च करता है, तो आमतौर पर वह उचित दरों पर थोड़े समय के लिए उधार ले सकता है। लेकिन यदि वह किसी अय्याश की तरह सावधानी को ताक पर रख देता है, और खर्च करने में ज़रा भी त्याग करने को तैयार नहीं होता; यदि वह करों को लोगों की भुगतान करने की क्षमता की सीमा तक खींच देता है और लगातार घाटा बढ़ाता जाता है, तो वह दिवालियापन के रास्ते पर है
If the Nation is living within its income, its credit is good. If, in some crises, it lives beyond its income for a year or two, it can usually borrow temporarily at reasonable rates. But if, like a spendthrift, it throws discretion to the winds, and is willing to make no sacrifice at all in spending; if it extends its taxing to the limit of the peoples power to pay and continues to pile up deficits, then it is on the road to bankruptcy.

हमने इमर्सन के इस सीधे-साधे सच को सीख लिया है कि दोस्त बनाने का एकमात्र तरीका खुद दोस्त बनना है। यदि हम इसके पास संदेह, अविश्वास या डर के साथ जाएंगे, तो हम कभी भी स्थायी शांति हासिल नहीं कर पाएंगे।
We have learned the simple truth, as Emerson said that the only way to have a friend is to be one. We can gain no lasting peace if we approach it with suspicion or mistrust or with fear.

राष्ट्रपतियों का पद केवल एक प्रशासनिक कार्यालय नहीं है। यह तो सबसे छोटी बात है। यह एक इंजीनियरिंग के काम से कहीं बढ़कर है, चाहे वह कुशल हो या अकुशल। यह सर्वोपरि रूप से नैतिक नेतृत्व का स्थान है। हमारे सभी महान राष्ट्रपति विचारों के ऐसे समय में मार्गदर्शक रहे हैं जब राष्ट्र के जीवन के कुछ ऐतिहासिक विचारों को स्पष्ट करना जरूरी था
The Presidency is not merely an administrative office. Thats the least of it. It is more than an engineering job, efficient or inefficient. It is pre-eminently a place of moral leadership. All our great Presidents were leaders of thought at times when certain historic ideas in the life of the nation had to be clarified.

लोकतंत्र तभी पनप सकता है जब वह उन लोगों का समर्थन जुटाए जिन्हें लिंकन ने आम लोग कहा था। लोकतंत्र उस समर्थन को तभी बनाए रख सकता है जब वह समाज की ऐसी व्यवस्था करे जिससे पुरुषों और महिलाओं के विशाल समूहों को उनके और उनके बच्चों के लिए उचित सुरक्षा और आशा का आश्वासन मिले, और इस प्रकार उनकी गरिमा का पूरा सम्मान हो
Democracy can thrive only when it enlists the devotion of those whom Lincoln called the common people.

आर्थिक बीमारियाँ बहुत तेज़ी से फैलती हैं। इसलिए यह स्वाभाविक है कि हर देश का आर्थिक स्वास्थ्य उसके हर पड़ोसी के लिए चिंता का विषय होना चाहिए, चाहे वह नज़दीक हो या दूर।

May every one of us be granted the courage, the faith and the vision to give the best that is in us to that remaking!

यह कानून एक ऐसी इमारत में आधारशिला का काम करता है जो अभी बन रही है लेकिन पूरी नहीं हुई है—एक ऐसी इमारत जिसका उद्देश्य भविष्य की संभावित मंदी के झटकों को कम करना है, सरकार के भावी प्रशासनों को ज़रूरतमंदों को राहत देने के लिए भारी कर्ज़ लेने की मजबूरी से बचाना है, मुद्रास्फीति और अवस्फीति के उतार-चढ़ाव को संतुलित करना है—दूसरे शब्दों में, एक ऐसा कानून जो मानवीय ज़रूरतों का ख्याल रखेगा और साथ ही अमेरिका को एक बेहद मज़बूत आर्थिक ढांचा प्रदान करेगा।
This law represents a cornerstone in a structure which is being built but is by no means completed--a structure intended to lessen the force of possible future depressions, to act as a protection to future administrations of the Government against the necessity of going deeply into debt to furnish relief to the needy--a law to flatten out the peaks and valleys of deflation and of inflation--in other words, a law that will take care of human needs and at the same time provide for the United States an economic structure of vastly greater soundness.

नागरिक के प्रति राज्य का कर्तव्य एक सेवक का अपने मालिक के प्रति कर्तव्य जैसा होता है.... राज्य का एक कर्तव्य यह भी है कि वह उन नागरिकों की देखभाल करे जो ऐसी प्रतिकूल परिस्थितियों का शिकार हो जाते हैं कि वे दूसरों की मदद के बिना जीने के लिए जरूरी चीजें भी हासिल करने में असमर्थ होते हैं.... ऐसे अभाग्य नागरिकों को सरकार द्वारा सहायता दी जानी चाहिए—दान के रूप में नहीं बल्कि एक सामाजिक कर्तव्य के रूप में

One of the duties of the State is that of caring for those of its citizens who find themselves the victims of such adverse circumstances as makes them unable to obtain even the necessities for mere existence without the aid of others.... To these unfortunate citizens aid must be extended by government--not as a matter of charity but as a matter of social duty.

Once I prophesied that this generation of Americans had a rendezvous with destiny. That prophecy now comes true. To us much is given; more is expected.

क्योंकि इस आधुनिक सभ्यता में आर्थिक दिग्गजों (इकोनॉमिक रॉयलिस्ट्स) ने नए साम्राज्यों को गढ़ा। भौतिक चीज़ों के नियंत्रण के केंद्रीकरण पर नए राज्यों का निर्माण किया गया। निगमों, बैंकों और प्रतिभूतियों (सिक्योरिटीज) के नए उपयोगों के माध्यम से, उद्योग और कृषि, श्रम और पूंजी की नई मशीनरी के ज़रिए—जिनकी कल्पना हमारे पूर्वजों ने कभी नहीं की थी—आधुनिक जीवन के पूरे ढांचे को इन शाही सेवाओं में झोंक दिया गया।

बेहिसाब और क्रूर ताकत का मुकाबला करने का इकलौता तरीका बेहिसाब और क्रूर ताकत ही है। हमलावर ऐसी जंग के नियम खुद तय करता है; बचाव करने वालों के पास इसके अलावा कोई चारा नहीं बचता कि वे तबाही का जवाब और बड़ी तबाही से दें, और कत्लेआम का जवाब उससे भी बड़े कत्लेआम से दें।
Against naked force the only possible defense is naked force. The aggressor makes the rules for such a war; the defenders have no alternative but matching destruction with more destruction, slaughter with greater slaughter.

उन्होंने अपने बेटों को सेना की सेवा में सौंप दिया है। उन्होंने भट्ठियों को दहकाया है और कारखाने के पहियों को गति दी है। उन्होंने विमान बनाए हैं और टैंकों की वेल्डिंग की है। जहाजों को जोड़ा है और गोलियाँ ढाली हैं।

राष्ट्रों के बीच की दोस्ती, ठीक व्यक्तियों की तरह, मानवता की ताकतों को एकजुट करने के लिए रचनात्मक प्रयासों की मांग करती है ताकि गहरे आपसी समझ और सहयोग का माहौल तैयार किया जा सके।

सरकार का उद्देश्य यह सुनिश्चित करना है कि न केवल कुछ चुनिंदा लोगों के जायज हितों की रक्षा हो, बल्कि बहुसंख्यक जनता के कल्याण और अधिकारों की भी संभाल हो।

मुझे लगता है कि किसी पुस्तकालय का लोकार्पण करना आस्था का एक कार्य है। अतीत के संसाधनों को एक जगह इकट्ठा करना और उन्हें ऐसी इमारतों में सहेजना जहाँ वे भविष्य के स्त्री-पुरुषों के उपयोग के लिए सुरक्षित रहें, इसके लिए एक राष्ट्र को तीन बातों में अटूट विश्वास होना चाहिए। उसे अतीत पर विश्वास होना चाहिए। उसे भविष्य पर विश्वास होना चाहिए। और सबसे बढ़कर, उसे अपने लोगों की इस क्षमता पर विश्वास होना चाहिए कि वे अतीत से सीख लेकर अपने भविष्य को संवारने में अपनी समझ को और बेहतर बना सकें।
It seems to me that the dedication of a library is an act of faith. To bring together the resources of the past and to house them in buildings where they will be preserved for the use of men and women in the future, a nation must believe in three things. It must believe in the past. it must believe in the future. It must, above all, believe in the capacity of its own people so to learn from the past that they can gain in judgment in creating their own future.

खुशी सिर्फ पैसे के पास होने में नहीं है; यह तो कुछ हासिल करने के आनंद में और रचनात्मक प्रयास के रोमांच में बसती है। पलक झपकते ही गायब हो जाने वाले मुनाफे की अंधी दौड़ में हमें काम के उस आनंद और नैतिक प्रेरणा को भुलाना नहीं चाहिए। ये बुरे दिन अपनी पूरी कीमत चुकाने लायक साबित होंगे यदि वे हमें यह सिखा सकें कि हमारी असली मंजिल दूसरों की सेवा पाना नहीं, बल्कि खुद की और अपने साथी इंसानों की सेवा करना है।
Happiness lies not in the mere possession of money; it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort. The joy and moral stimulation of work no longer must be forgotten in the mad chase of evanescent profits. These dark days will be worth all they cost us if they teach us that our true destiny is not to be ministered unto but to minister to ourselves and to our fellow men.

मुझे पूरा विश्वास है कि संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिका में किसी भी सरकारी नीति (चाहे वह विदेशी हो या घरेलू) को लागू करने के लिए जनता के वास्तविक समर्थन की आवश्यकता होती है। अमेरिकी लोग खुद अपने फैसले लेते हैं और कोई भी सरकारी कार्रवाई इसे बदल नहीं सकती।

आखिरकार हमारा राष्ट्रीय कर्ज एक आंतरिक कर्ज है जो न केवल राष्ट्र द्वारा है बल्कि राष्ट्र के ही प्रति है। यदि हमारे बच्चों को इस पर ब्याज चुकाना भी पड़े, तो वे वह ब्याज खुद को ही चुकाएंगे। एक उचित आंतरिक कर्ज हमारे बच्चों को गरीब नहीं बनाएगा और न ही राष्ट्र को दिवालिया करेगा।
Our national debt after all is an internal debt owed not only by the Nation but to the Nation. If our children have to pay interest on it they will pay that interest to themselves. A reasonable internal debt will not impoverish our children or put the Nation into bankruptcy.

एक छोटे से समूह ने दूसरे लोगों की संपत्ति, दूसरे लोगों के पैसे, दूसरे लोगों की मेहनत और दूसरे लोगों के जीवन पर लगभग पूरा नियंत्रण अपने हाथों में केंद्रित कर लिया था। हम में से कितनों के लिए ही जीवन अब स्वतंत्र नहीं रहा था; स्वतंत्रता अब वास्तविक नहीं रही थी; लोग अब खुशी की तलाश में आगे नहीं बढ़ सकते थे।
A small group had concentrated into their own hands an almost complete control over other people's property, other people's money, other people's labor - other people's lives. For too many of us life was no longer free; liberty no longer real; men could no longer follow the pursuit of happiness.

कर (टैक्स) मेहनत करने वाले हर इंसान के पसीने की कमाई से चुकाए जाते हैं। यदि ये कर अत्यधिक हों, तो इसका परिणाम वीरान कारखानों, नीलामी में बिकने वाले खेतों, और सड़कों पर काम की तलाश में भटकती भूखी भीड़ के रूप में सामने आता है। हमारे मजदूर भले ही कभी टैक्स का बिल न देखें, लेकिन कीमत वे ही चुकाते हैं। वे यह कीमत अपनी मजदूरी से होने वाली कटौती के रूप में, अपनी जरूरत की चीजों के बढ़े हुए दामों के जरिए, या फिर – जैसा कि आज हो रहा है – पूरे देश में फैली भारी बेरोजगारी के रूप में चुकाते हैं।
Taxes are paid in the sweat of every man who labors. If those taxes are excessive, they are reflected in idle factories, in tax-sold farms, and in hordes of hungry people, tramping the streets and seeking jobs in vain. Our workers may never see a tax bill, but they pay. They pay in deductions from wages, in increased cost of what they buy, or - as now - in broad unemployment throughout the land.

जिस पल इस देश में राज्यों या मतदाताओं का कोई महज़ संख्या बल, अल्पसंख्यक वर्ग की जरूरतों और इच्छाओं की अनदेखी करने लगे, और अपने स्वार्थ या फायदे के लिए उस अल्पसंख्यक वर्ग का दमन करे, या उन्हें किसी भी तरह से समान अधिकारों और समान विशेषाधिकारों से वंचित करे—वही पल हमारी संवैधानिक व्यवस्था की विफलता का गवाह बनेगा।
The moment a mere numerical superiority by either states or voters in this country proceeds to ignore the needs and desires of the minority, and for their own selfish purpose or advancement, hamper or oppress that minority, or debar them in any way from equal privileges and equal rights-that moment will mark the failure of our constitutional system.

साफ कहूँ तो, "बिना शर्त आत्मसमर्पण" शब्द को परिभाषित करने के लिए बातचीत करने का विचार मुझे पसंद नहीं है। जर्मन लोगों को मेरे क्रिसमस की पूर्व संध्या वाले भाषण की बातें बार-बार सुनाई जा सकती हैं—संक्षेप में यह कि जर्मन लोगों को नष्ट करने का हमारा कोई विचार नहीं है और हम चाहते हैं कि वे अन्य यूरोपीय लोगों की तरह पीढ़ियों तक जीवित रहें, बशर्ते कि वे विजय की अपनी वर्तमान विचारधारा को छोड़ दें।
Frankly, I do not like the idea of conversations to define the term "unconditional surrender."The German people can have dinned into their ears what I said in my Christmas Eve speech--in effect, that we have no thought of destroying the German people and that we want them to live through the generations like other European peoples on condition, of course, that they get rid of their present philosophy of conquest.

वह समय आ गया है जब अमेरिकी महाद्वीपों के लोगों को बढ़ती कड़वाहट, आक्रामकता की स्पष्ट प्रवृत्तियों, बढ़ते हथियारों और घटते संयम का संज्ञान लेना होगा—ऐसी स्थिति जिसमें वे कई तत्व मौजूद हैं जो एक आम युद्ध की त्रासदी की ओर ले जाते हैं... स्वार्थी सत्ता की चाह रखने वालों द्वारा शांति को खतरा पैदा किया जा रहा है।
A point has been reached where the peoples of the Americas must take cognizance of growing ill-will, of marked trends toward aggression, of increasing armaments, of shortening tempers--a situation which has in it many of the elements that lead to the tragedy of general war.... Peace is threatened by those who seek selfish power.

हमें पूरा विश्वास है कि आने वाली पीढ़ियाँ बीसवीं सदी के इस दौर को याद रखेंगी और जानेंगी कि जब अच्छे विचारों वाले लोग एक साथ आए थे, उन्होंने एकजुट होकर उत्पादन किया था, और अज्ञानता, असहिष्णुता, गुलामी तथा युद्ध की ताकतों को नेस्तनाबूद करने के लिए संघर्ष किया था।
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.

राष्ट्रपति बनने के बाद से, मुझे यह अहसास हुआ है कि आज विदेश में हमारे सबसे बेहतरीन अमेरिकी क्रॉस (धर्म) के मिशनरी हैं। मुझे इस बात पर खुद पर शर्म आती है कि विदेशी मिशनों की कीमत और मिशनरियों की महानता का पता मुझे इतनी देर से चला।
Since becoming President, I have come to know that the finest of Americans we have abroad today are the missionaries of the cross. I am humiliated that I am not finding this out until this late day the worth of foreign missions and the nobility of the missionaries.

मुझे उम्मीद है कि पिछले कुछ हफ्तों में आपने संयुक्त राष्ट्र के संविधान को फिर से पढ़ा होगा। बाइबिल की तरह इसे भी बार-बार पढ़ा जाना चाहिए।
I hope that you have re-read the Constitution of the United States in these past few weeks. Like the Bible, it ought to be read again and again.

एक ऐसी दुनिया जो एक रूढ़ि बन चुकी है, एक ऐसा समाज जो एक सेना की टुकड़ी में बदल चुका है, एक ऐसा जीवन जो एक दिनचर्या में सिमट गया है, कला और कलाकारों दोनों के लिए जीवित रहना मुश्किल बना देते हैं। समाज में व्यक्ति की स्वायत्तता को कुचल दीजिए और आप कला को भी कुचल देते हैं। स्वतंत्र जीवन के लिए अनुकूल परिस्थितियाँ दीजिए और आप कला को भी पोषित करते हैं।
A world turned into a stereotype, a society converted into a regiment, a life translated into a routine, make it difficult for either art or artists to survive. Crush individuality in society and you crush art as well. Nourish the conditions of a free life and you nourish the arts, too.

निजी उद्यम अब स्वतंत्र उद्यम नहीं रह गए हैं। वास्तव में, निजी उद्यम कुछ ज्यादा ही 'निजी' हो गए थे। वे स्वतंत्र उद्यम न रहकर कुछ खास लोगों के विशेष अधिकारों वाले उद्यम बन गए थे।
Private enterprise is ceasing to be free enterprise. Private enterprise, indeed, became too private. It became privileged enterprise, not free enterprise.

जापानी लोगों ने अपनी विजय की उन्मादी यात्रा शुरू करने के बाद से जितनी भी प्रगति की है, उसके लिए उन्हें युद्धपोतों, परिवहन जहाजों, विमानों और सैनिकों के रूप में बहुत भारी कीमत चुकानी पड़ी है। वे उन नुकसानों के असर को महसूस कर रहे हैं।
For every advance that the Japanese have made since they started their frenzied career of conquest, they have had to pay a very heavy toll in warships, in transports, in planes, and in men. They are feeling the effects of those losses.

मैं एक ऐसे अमेरिका की कल्पना करता हूँ जहाँ हमारी नदियाँ, घाटियाँ, झीलें, पहाड़ियाँ, धाराएँ, मैदान, पहाड़ और धरती के भीतर छिपा प्रकृति का खजाना—सबकी रक्षा पूरे देश के नागरिकों की वैध विरासत के रूप में की जाती है।

हम हमेशा से जानते थे कि लापरवाह स्वार्थ बुरा नैतिक आचरण है; अब हम जानते हैं कि यह खराब अर्थशास्त्र भी है। ऐसे समृद्धि के पतन से, जिसके निर्माताओं ने अपनी व्यावहारिकता का डींग हाँका था, यह विश्वास पैदा हुआ है कि लंबे समय में आर्थिक नैतिकता का फल मिलता है।
We have always known that heedless self-interest was bad morals; we know now that it is bad economics. Out of the collapse of a prosperity whose builders boasted their practicality has come the conviction that in the long run economic morality pays.

उदारवादी दल वह दल है जो यह मानता है कि जैसे-जैसे नई परिस्थितियाँ और समस्याएँ पैदा होती हैं जो आम आदमी के बूते से बाहर होती हैं, वैसे-वैसे उनका मुकाबला करने के नए रास्ते खोजना खुद सरकार का कर्तव्य बन जाता है।
The liberal party is a party which believes that, as new conditions an problems arise beyond the power of men and women to meet as individuals, it becomes the duty of the government itself to find new remedies with which to meet them.

आइए हम उद्देश्यों और तरीकों को आपस में न मिलाएं। राष्ट्र के बहुत से तथाकथित नेता पेड़ों के चक्कर में जंगल को देख ही नहीं पाते। उनमें से बहुत से लोग निश्चित उद्देश्यों के लिए योजना बनाने की अत्यधिक आवश्यकता को पहचानने में विफल रहते हैं। सच्ची नेतृत्व क्षमता उद्देश्यों को निर्धारित करने और उनके समर्थन में जनमत को एकजुट करने की मांग करती है।
Let us not confuse objectives with methods. Too many so-called leaders of the nation fail to see the forest because of the trees. Too many of them fail to recognize the vital necessity of planning for definite objectives. True leadership calls for the setting forth of the objectives and the rallying of public opinion in support of these objectives.

मैं यह स्पष्ट करने के लिए... तैयार हूँ कि अमेरिकी विदेश नीति को अंतरराष्ट्रीय संधियों की पवित्रता को बनाए रखना चाहिए। यही वह आधारशिला है जिस पर राष्ट्रों के बीच के सभी संबंध टिके होने चाहिए।

बेशक हम अमेरिका के घरों और खेतों में सस्ती बिजली, बेहतर और सस्ते परिवहन, कम ब्याज दरों, सुरक्षित गृह वित्तपोषण, बेहतर बैंकिंग, प्रतिभूति मुद्दों के विनियमन, राष्ट्रों के बीच पारस्परिक व्यापार और बस्तियों को मिटाने के लिए काम करना जारी रखेंगे। और मेरे मित्रों, इन सबके लिए तो हमने अभी संघर्ष करना शुरू ही किया है।
Of course we will continue to work for cheaper electricity in the homes and on the farms of America; for better and cheaper transportation; for low interest rates; for sounder home financing; for better banking; for the regulation of security issues; for reciprocal trade among nations and for the wiping out of slums. And my friends, for all of these we have only begun to fight.

सशस्त्र बलों के कमांडर-इन-चीफ के रूप में, संयुक्त राष्ट्र की सेनाओं में सेवा दे रहे सभी लोगों को बाइबिल पढ़ने की सलाह देते हुए मुझे बेहद प्रसन्नता हो रही है। सदियों से, विभिन्न आस्थाओं और पृष्ठफाभूमियों के लोगों को इस पवित्र ग्रंथ में ज्ञान, मार्गदर्शन और प्रेरणा के शब्द मिले हैं। यह ताकत का एक सोता है... मानव आत्मा की सर्वोच्च आकांक्षाओं को प्राप्त करने में एक मददगार सहारा है।
As Commander-in-Chief, I take pleasure in commending the reading of the Bible to all who serve in the Armed Forces of the United States. Throughout the centuries, men of many faiths and diverse origins have found in the Sacred Book words of wisdom, counsel, and inspiration. It is a fountain of strength...an aid in attaining the highest aspiration of the human soul.

पिछले शरद ऋतु में आपके प्रधानमंत्री के साथ व्यापार समझौते पर हस्ताक्षर करने का जो सौभाग्य मुझे मिला, वह दोनों देशों के लोगों की इस इच्छा का स्पष्ट प्रमाण है कि वे जब अच्छे पड़ोसी होने की बात करते हैं, तो उस पर वास्तव में अमल भी करते हैं। आज दुनिया के सामने जो गंभीर समस्याएं हैं, उनके समाधान के लिए राष्ट्रों के बीच खुलकर बात करना, सहयोग करना और आपसी लेन-देन (समझौते) की भावना पहले से कहीं अधिक महत्वपूर्ण है।
The trade agreement which I had the privilege of signing with your Prime Minister last autumn is tangible evidence of the desire of the people of both countries to practice what they preach when they speak of the good neighbor. In the solution of the grave problems that face the world today, frank dealing, cooperation and a spirit of give and take between nations is more important than ever before.

हम अपनी जमीन, पानी और इंसानी संसाधनों को स्थिर या बंजर संपत्ति के रूप में नहीं देखते, बल्कि उन्हें जीवन देने वाली ऐसी पूँजी मानते हैं जिसे भविष्य की भलाई के लिए समझदारी से संचालित किया जाना चाहिए।

वे यह समझते हैं कि चौंतीस महीनों में हमने सार्वजनिक शक्ति के नए साधन तैयार किए हैं। एक जन-सरकार के हाथों में यह शक्ति कल्याणकारी और उचित है। लेकिन एक आर्थिक तानाशाही की राजनीतिक कठपुतलियों के हाथों में ऐसी शक्ति लोगों की स्वतंत्रताओं के लिए बेड़ियाँ साबित होगी।
They realize that in thirty-four months we have built up new instruments of public power. In the hands of a peoples Government this power is wholesome and proper. But in the hands of political puppets of an economic autocracy such power would provide shackles for the liberties of the people.

ये रिपब्लिकन नेता मुझ पर, मेरी पत्नी पर या मेरे बेटों पर हमले करने से संतुष्ट नहीं हुए। नहीं, इससे भी उनका मन नहीं भरा, अब उन्होंने मेरे छोटे कुत्ते 'फाला' को भी इसमें शामिल कर लिया है। खैर, ज़ाहिर है, मुझे इन हमलों से कोई आपत्ति नहीं है... लेकिन फाला को इनसे ज़रूर आपत्ति है।
These Republican leaders have not been content with attacks on me, on my wife, or on my sons. No, not content with that, they now include my little dog, Fala. Well, of course, I don't resent attacks... but Fala does resent them.

मुझे लगता है कि यहाँ और इंग्लैंड दोनों जगह दो तरह के विचार हैं—एक वे जो जर्मन लोगों के प्रति उदारता दिखाना चाहते हैं, यह उम्मीद करते हुए कि प्रेम और दया से उन्हें फिर से ईसाई (सज्जन) बनाया जा सकता है—और दूसरे वे जो बहुत सख्त रवैया अपनाना चाहते हैं। मैं निश्चित रूप से दूसरे विचारों से ताल्लुक रखता हूँ, क्योंकि हालाँकि मैं खून का प्यासा नहीं हूँ, पर मैं चाहता हूँ कि जर्मन यह जान लें कि कम से कम इस बार उन्होंने युद्ध निश्चित रूप से हार दिया है।
I think that both here and in England there are two schools of thought--those who would be altruistic in regard to the Germans, hoping that by loving kindness to make them Christian again--and those who would adopt a much tougher attitude. Most decidedly I belong to the latter school, for though I am not blood-thirsty, I want the Germans to know that this time at least they have definitely lost the war.

यह स्वाभाविक और शायद इंसानी फितरत भी थी कि सत्ता की भूखी इन नई आर्थिक व्यवस्थाओं के ताकतवर शहजादों ने खुद सरकार पर नियंत्रण पाने की कोशिश की। उन्होंने एक नई तानाशाही गढ़ी और उसे कानूनी जामा पहना दिया। ...और नतीजतन, आम इंसान के सामने एक बार फिर वही समस्या आ खड़ी हुई जिसका सामना 'मिनटमैन' (क्रांतिकारी सैनिकों) ने किया था।
It was natural and perhaps human that the privileged princes of these new economic dynasties, thirsting for power, reached out for control over government itself. They created a new despotism and wrapped it in the robes of legal sanction. ...And as a result the average man once more confronts the problem that faced the Minute Man.

अलगाववाद, साम्राज्यवाद या शक्ति की राजनीति की तरह ही पूर्णतावाद भी अंतरराष्ट्रीय शांति के रास्ते में बाधा बन सकता है। आइए हम न भूलें कि एक चौथाई सदी पहले अलगाववाद की तरफ वापसी की शुरुआत अंतरराष्ट्रीय सहयोग पर सीधे हमले से नहीं, बल्कि शांति व्यवस्था की कथित कमियों के बहाने हुई थी।
Perfectionism, no less than isolationism or imperialism or power politics, may obstruct the paths to international peace.

हमारे लोकतंत्र का मूल मंत्र यह है कि स्वतंत्रता उन मजबूत और आत्मनिर्भर स्त्री-पुरुषों द्वारा हासिल की जाती है और सुरक्षित रखी जाती है, जिन्हें ईश्वर द्वारा दी गई समझदारी प्राप्त है—ऐसे स्त्री-पुरुष जो न्यायप्रिय, समझदार और दूसरों के प्रति उदार हैं—ऐसे स्त्री-पुरुष जो खुद पर संयम रखने में सक्षम हैं। क्योंकि वे ही शासक हैं और उन्हें खुद पर शासन करना ही होगा।

जहाँ भी धार्मिक स्वतंत्रता पर हमला हुआ है, वह हमला लोकतंत्र के विरोधियों की ओर से आया है। जहाँ भी लोकतंत्र को कुचला गया है, वहाँ स्वतंत्र रूप से पूजा करने की भावना गायब हो गई है। और जहाँ धर्म और लोकतंत्र दोनों मिट गए हैं, वहाँ अंतरराष्ट्रीय मामलों में सदभावना और विवेक की जगह उग्र महत्वाकांक्षा और क्रूर बल ने ले ली है।

पूरे तीन लंबे समय से मैं इस देश में घूम-घूम कर यह प्रचार कर रहा हूँ कि सरकार... पर बहुत अधिक खर्च होता है। मैं यह प्रचार बंद नहीं करूँगा।
For three long years I have been going up and down this country preaching that government . . . costs too much. I shall not stop that preaching.

हमने यह सीख लिया है कि हम अकेले शांति से नहीं रह सकते; कि हमारा अपना कल्याण दूरदराज के अन्य देशों के कल्याण पर निर्भर करता है। हमने यह सीख लिया है कि हमें शुतुरमुर्गों की तरह या दावत में रुकावट डालने वाले कुत्तों की तरह नहीं, बल्कि इंसानों की तरह जीना चाहिए।
We have learned that we cannot live alone, at peace; that our own well-being is dependent on the well-being of other nations far away. We have learned that we must live as men, not as ostriches, nor as dogs in the manger.

यह बहुत असंभव है कि कोई हवाई जहाज, या विमानों का बेड़ा, कभी युद्ध की स्थिति में नौसेना के जहाजों के बेड़े को डुबा सके।

आय के हिसाब से कर (टैक्स) वसूलना अब तक का सबसे प्रभावी जरिया है, जिससे उन लोगों से उचित योगदान लिया जा सके जो इसे उठाने में सबसे सक्षम हैं और हमारे आम लोगों के भारी भरकम बोझ से बचाया जा सके।
Taxation according to income is the most effective instrument yet devised to obtain just contribution from those best able to bear it and to avoid placing onerous burdens upon the mass of our people.

कोई भी सरकार, किसी भी परिवार की तरह, एक साल के लिए अपनी कमाई से थोड़ा ज़्यादा खर्च कर सकती है। लेकिन आप और मैं जानते हैं कि उस आदत को जारी रखने का मतलब है दिवालिया हो जाना।
Any Government, like any family, can for a year spend a little more than it earns. But you and I know that a continuation of that habit means the poorhouse.

कोई भी इंसान किसी बाघ को सहलाकर उसे बिल्ली नहीं बना सकता। क्रूरता के साथ कोई नरमी नहीं बरती जा सकती। किसी आग लगाने वाले बम से कोई तर्क नहीं किया जा सकता।
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.

इतिहास के सबक, और ठीक मेरे सामने मौजूद साक्ष्य यह पूरी तरह साबित करते हैं कि सरकारी सहायता पर लगातार निर्भर रहना एक ऐसी मानसिक कमजोरी पैदा करता है जो राष्ट्र की रीढ़ को अंदर से खोखला कर देती है। इस तरह से राहत या खैरात बांटना एक नशे के टीके की तरह है, जो इंसानी जज्बे को चुपचाप दीमक की तरह चाट जाता है। यह एक स्वस्थ नीति के नियमों के खिलाफ है। यह अमेरिका की परंपराओं के विरुद्ध है।
The lessons of history, confirmed by the evidence immediately before me, show conclusively that continued dependence upon relief induces a spiritual disintegration fundamentally destructive to the national fiber. To dole out relief in this way is to administer a narcotic, a subtle destroyer of the human spirit. It is inimical to the dictates of a sound policy. It is in violation of the traditions of America.

लोकतंत्र का चोला ओढ़े हुए अल्पतंत्र (ऑलिगार्की) की सरकार स्थापित करने के लिए यह बेहद जरूरी है कि लगभग सारा अधिकार और नियंत्रण हमारी संघीय (फेडरल) सरकार के हाथों में केंद्रित कर दिया जाए... इसके लिए सबसे पहले हमारे राज्यों की व्यक्तिगत संप्रभुता को नष्ट करना होगा।
To bring about government by oligarchy, masquerading as democracy, it is fundamentally essential that practically all authority and control be centralized in our Federal government. . . The individual sovereignty of our states must first be destroyed.

हम इस बात के लिए प्रतिबद्ध हैं कि स्वतंत्रता कोई आधी-अधूरी चीज़ नहीं है। यदि आम नागरिक को मतदान केंद्र में समान अवसर की गारंटी दी जाती है, तो उसे बाज़ार में भी समान अवसर मिलना चाहिए।
We stand committed to the proposition that freedom is no half-and-half affair. If the average citizen is guaranteed equal opportunity in the polling place, he must have equal opportunity in the market place.

धार्मिक सहिष्णुता का पाठ—एक ऐसी सहिष्णुता जो मानवीय सोच और अंतरात्मा की पूर्ण स्वतंत्रता को मानती है—एक ऐसा सबक है जिसे हमारे लोकतंत्र की संस्थाओं को बचाए रखने और जीवित रखने के लिए उपदेश और उदाहरण दोनों के जरिए हर अमेरिकी के दिल और दिमाग में उतारना होगा। हमें इंसान के बुनियादी अधिकारों को स्वीकार करना होगा। हमारे लोकतंत्र में तब तक कोई सच्चा राष्ट्रीय जीवन नहीं हो सकता जब तक हम धार्मिक और शैक्षणिक स्वतंत्रता को बिना किसी शर्त के स्वीकार नहीं करते।
The lessons of religious toleration - a toleration which recognizes complete liberty of human thought, liberty of conscience - is one which, by precept and example, must be inculcated in the hearts and minds of all Americans if the institutions of our democracy are to be maintained and perpetuated. We must recognize the fundamental rights of man. There can be no true national life in our democracy unless we give unqualified recognition to freedom of religious worship and freedom of education.

धीरे-धीरे, और हम अमेरिकियों के कुछ करने या न करने के बावजूद, ऐसा लग रहा है कि आपको और कुछ अन्य अच्छे लोगों को उस पुराने सवाल का जवाब देना होगा कि क्या आप इसे करने के लिए और भी अधिक निश्चित कदम उठाकर अपने देश को स्वतंत्र रखना चाहते हैं
Slowly, and in spite of anything we Americans do or do not do, it looks a little as if you and some other good people are going to have to answer the old question of whether you want to keep your country unshackled by taking even more definite steps to do so

इंसान और प्रकृति को कंधे से कंधा मिलाकर काम करना चाहिए। प्रकृति के संसाधनों का संतुलन बिगड़ने से इंसानों की जिंदगी का संतुलन भी बिगड़ जाता है।
Men and nature must work hand in hand. The throwing out of balance of the resources of nature throws out of balance also the lives of men.

सच्चे अर्थों में, स्वतंत्रता किसी को उपहार में नहीं दी जा सकती; इसे हासिल करना पड़ता है।

हालाँकि सतह पर हालात पिछले गर्मियों के बाद से सबसे ज़्यादा शांत प्रतीत हो रहे हैं, लेकिन आक्रामक देशों में लगभग पूर्ण सैन्य लामबंदियों को बनाए रखना मुझे पसंद नहीं निश्चित रूप से वे इसका खर्च नहीं उठा सकते और यदि उनके पास आर्थिक संकट से उबरने की कोई निश्चित नीति होती (हथियारों के अलावा), तो वे सैन्य खर्च में कटौती के कुछ संकेत ज़रूर दिखा रहे होते।
While things on the surface seem more quiet than at any time since last summer, I do not like the maintenance of what amounts to almost full mobilization in aggressor countries. Surely they cannot afford it and if they had any definite policy of trying to work out economic salvation (except by arms) they would be showing some signs of cutting military expenditures.

मैं यह स्पष्ट कर देना चाहता हूँ कि मेरा यह दावा बिल्कुल नहीं है कि राष्ट्रपति और कांग्रेस (संसद) को हर मुद्दे पर हमेशा एक-दूसरे से सहमत होना चाहिए। इतिहास में कई बार सरकार के इन दोनों अंगों के बीच गहरी असहमति रही है, और ऐसी असहमतियों में कभी कांग्रेस की जीत हुई है तो कभी राष्ट्रपति की। लेकिन मौजूदा राष्ट्रपति के कार्यकाल के दौरान, न तो हमारे बीच कोई सहमति रही है और न ही कोई स्पष्ट और निर्णायक संघर्ष हुआ है।
Let me make it clear that I do not assert that a President and the Congress must on all points agree with each other at all times. Many times in history there has been complete disagreement between the two branches of the Government, and in these disagreements sometimes the Congress has won and sometimes the President has won. But during the Administration of the present President we have had neither agreement nor a clear-cut battle.

स्वतंत्रता की मेरी धारणा किसी व्यक्तिगत नागरिक या नागरिकों के समूह को प्रकृति के विरुद्ध ऐसे विनाशकारी कृत्य करने की अनुमति नहीं देती जिससे उनके पड़ोसियों और विशेष रूप से अमेरिकियों की भावी पीढ़ियों को नुकसान पहुँचे। यदि कई वर्षों पहले हमारे पास आवश्यक ज्ञान होता, और विशेष रूप से संघीय सरकार की ओर से आवश्यक इच्छाशक्ति होती, तो हम उस राशि को बचा लेते, जो राशि आज अमेरिका के करदाताओं को दो अरब डॉलर पड़ी है।
[M]y conception of liberty does not permit an individual citizen or a group of citizens to commit acts of depredation against nature in such a way as to harm their neighbors and especially to harm the future generations of Americans. If many years ago we had had the necessary knowledge, and especially the necessary willingness on the part of the Federal Government, we would have saved a sum, a sum of money which has cost the taxpayers of America two billion dollars.

बेशक हम इन बातों पर विश्वास करते हैं। हम सामाजिक सुरक्षा में विश्वास करते हैं। हम बेरोजगारों के लिए काम में विश्वास करते हैं। हम घर बचाने में विश्वास करते हैं। भगवान की कसम, हम इन सब बातों में विश्वास करते हैं! हम इन सभी चीजों को मानते हैं। लेकिन जिस तरह से मौजूदा सरकार इन्हें लागू कर रही है, वह हमें पसंद नहीं है। बस ये काम हमें सौंप दीजिए। हम इन सभी कामों को कर दिखाएंगे, इनसे भी ज्यादा करेंगे, और उनसे बेहतर तरीके से करेंगे, और सबसे बड़ी बात यह है कि इन कामों को करने में किसी को कोई कीमत नहीं चुकानी पड़ेगी!
Of course we believe these things. We believe in social security. We believe in work for the unemployed. We believe in saving homes. Cross our hearts and hope to die! We believe in all these things. But we do not like the way that the present administration is doing them. Just turn them over to us. We will do all of them, we will do more of them, we will do them better and, most important of all, the doing of them will not cost anybody anything!

एक समझदार सरकार ऐसे अवसर प्रदान करने की कोशिश करती है जिससे व्यक्तिगत सफलता का सर्वश्रेष्ठ हासिल किया जा सके, और साथ ही वह ऐसे अवरोधों और अन्यायों को दूर करने का प्रयास करती है जो स्वार्थी इंसानी प्रवृत्तियों से पैदा होते हैं।
