It doesn't take a hero to order men into battle. It takes a hero to be one of those men who goes into battle.
The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.
The dead soldier's silence sings our national anthem.
Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear.

Keep your face always toward the sunshine—and shadows will fall behind you.
The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.
To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die.
The only way to do great work is to love what you do.

We come, not to mourn our dead soldiers, but to praise them.
Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.
The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today.
The legacy of heroes is the memory of a great name and the inheritance of a great example.
The brave die never, though they sleep in dust: Their courage nerves a thousand living men.

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.

Success is not final, failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts.
The willingness of America's veterans to sacrifice for our country has earned them our lasting gratitude.
