Harry S. Truman (1884-1972), 33rd President of the United States
"The American people stand firm in the faith that has inspired this Nation from the beginning. We believe that all men have a right to equal justice under law and equal opportunity to share the common good. We believe that all men have the right to freedom of thought and expression. We believe that all men are created equal because they are created in the image of God. From this faith we will not be moved…Steadfast in our faith in the Almighty, we will advance toward a world where man's freedom is secure. To that end we will devote our strength, our resources, and our firmness of resolve. With God's help, the future of mankind will be assured in a world of justice, harmony and peace." Inaugural Address, January 20, 1949
