Topic: Righteousness Exalts a Nation

[President Roosevelt, as quoted in The New York Times]

Despite all that we see today of the tragedy which man's selfishness has wrought in the world, we know that the ancient truths of the Bible will prevail over all error, because they constitute the teachings of God.

Righteousness alone exalts a nation, and the great truths of the Sermon on the Mount are as potent a guide today as when they were first uttered nineteen centuries ago.
