First stop lying, then start speaking the truth.

Our people must resolve to make sacrifices; above all, they must divest themselves of their passion for seeking the highest good in ever more and more sharply accentuated party struggles. They must cease to place the party above the welfare of the whole.

Americans need to face the truth about themselves, no matter how pleasant it is.

You must let suffering speak, if you want to hear the truth

We need to be truthful with the American people. Americans deserve the truth. The truth must be based on science. We have the world's greatest scientists. Let us lead. Let us speak without fear of retribution. We must listen. Each of us can and must do our part now.

Let's face it. Let's talk sense to the American people. Let's tell them the truth, that there are no gains without pains, that we are now on the eve of great decisions, not easy decisions, like resistance when you're attacked, but a long, patient, costly struggle which alone can assure triumph over the great enemies of man — war, poverty, and tyranny — and the assaults upon human dignity which are the most grievous consequences of each.

All of these are the sacrifices required for us to make it, and we have to be prepared to do so"

We must get the American public to look past the glitter, beyond the showmanship, to the reality, the hard substance of things. And we'll do it not so much with speeches that sound good as with speeches that are good and sound; not so much with speeches that will bring people to their feet as with speeches that will bring people to their senses.

It is necessary in our time to brave the ridiculous to be honest.

It's time to stop just talking, it's time to stop just intending, it's time for action; it's time to shut-up and say something!

We owe it to everybody in our party to be honest about where we stand.

Please ask yourself the same question my team and I ask every day: What are you willing to sacrifice for the truth?

The time has come for Americans of all races and creeds and political beliefs to understand and to respect one another. So let us put an end to the teaching and the preaching of hate and evil and violence.

Speak up, my boy. If you want truth, you should begin by giving it.
