The ques The young woman drew her head in. She went into the coupe and sat down. Out of the window,
on the other side, there was nothing: sand and bush; a thorn tree. Back through the open
doorway, past the figure of her husband in the corridor, the was the station, the voices, wooden
animals waving, running feet. Her eye followed the funny little valance of scrolled wood that
outlined the chalet roof of the station: she thought of the lion and smiled. That bit of fur round

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
