franklin delano roosevelt's inaugural speech — text version
this is preeminently the time to speak the truth, the whole truth, frankly and boldly. nor need we shrink from honestly facing conditions in our country today. this great nation will endure as it has endured, and will revive and will prosper. so, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing that we have to fear is fear itself—nameless, unreasoning,
unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance.—president franklin delano roosevelt
over one hundred thousand people crowded the capitol to hear franklin delano roosevelt, the thirty-second president of the united states, deliver one of the most famous and important speeches of the twentieth century. millions more tuned in on radios, listening to the president’s speech and the thunderous applause that washed over the capitol
on a cold and overcast saturday afternoon.
roosevelt took office in a period of unprecedented unemployment,
uncertain financial markets, and uneasiness about america’s place in the world.
in just 1,929 words, the new president restored the hope, confidence, and optimism of the nation.
a remark made by a young teacher in the crowd was published in a newspaper the next day and summed up the general feeling:
“any man who can talk like that in times like these is worthy of every ounce of support a true american has! ”

Read the excerpt from chapter 30 of the awakening. the golden shimmer of edna's satin gown spread in rich folds on either side of her. there was a soft fall of lace encircling her shoulders. it was the color of her skin, without the glow, the myriad living tints that one may sometimes discover in vibrant flesh. there was something in her attitude, in her whole appearance when she leaned her head against the high-backed chair and spread her arms, which suggested the regal woman, the one who rules, who looks on, who stands alone. what does this excerpt reveal about edna's character? edna is comfortable wearing rich fabrics such as lace and silk, and feels completely at ease at the dinner table. edna plays the role of the gracious hostess very well, but is actually isolated from her peers. edna has no patience for her guests, but rather treats them as a queen may treat her loyal subjects. edna's attitude is haughty, as required of a woman of her social stature living in new orleans.
