Более того́, свобо́да в Америка неотдели́ма от свобо́ды вероиспове́дания. Именно поэтому мече́ть есть в ка́ждом шта́те нашего сою́за, и более 1200 мече́тей в преде́лах наших грани́ц.

Люде́й всегда можно подвести́ к тому, к чему призыва́ют ли́деры. Э́то просто. Всё, что нужно сде́лать, - э́то сказа́ть им, что их атаку́ют, и осуди́ть пацифи́стов за недоста́ток патриоти́зма и за то, что они подверга́ют страну́ опа́сности. Э́то рабо́тает одинаково в любо́й стране́.

Бума́га всё сте́рпит. Мо́жет пройти́ много вре́мени между ста́дией плани́рования и реализа́цией прое́кта. Не всё написанное на бума́ге будет принято во внима́ние и выполнено. Далеко не всё написанное - пра́вда.

Нам сле́довало бы, по ме́ньшей ме́ре из предосторо́жности, никогда не говори́ть о себе, потому что э́то тако́й предме́т, насчёт кото́рого мы мо́жем быть уве́рены, что то́чка зре́ния други́х люде́й никогда не совпада́ет с наше́й со́бственной.

Не только де́ньги растра́чивает э́тот вооруженный мир. Он растра́чивает тяжелый труд свои́х рабо́чих, ге́ний свои́х ученых, наде́жды свои́х дете́й.
Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.
