FDR's Slogan

So many people are comparing the present economic crisis to the 1930's and wondering if Barack Obama's first 100 days will be at all like Franklin Roosevelt's. I like Obama's even keel and I think in the years ahead it may be vital to our well-being; his refusal to lose his head may be our ace in the hole while all around him others are losing their's. He balances the grim with a sense of play and detachment. He is a writer and a great orator and his love of language is obvious. I wonder what maxims and quotations give him the greatest solace. He could not go wrong remembering the slogan FDR, in a wheelchair facing the Great Depression and World War II, kept on his desk, "Let unconquerable gladness dwell."
