Zitate und Sprüche von Herbert Hoover

Demokratie steht nicht still. Sie ist eine lebendige Macht. Jede neue Idee, jede neue Erfindung kann sowohl gut, als auch böse sein.

Democracy is not static. It is a living force. Every new idea, every new invention offers opportunity for both good and evil.

Angeln ist viel mehr als Fische zu fangen. Es gibt uns die großartige Gelegenheit, zur Einfachheit unserer Vorväter zurück zu kehren.

Fishing is much more than fish. It is the great occasion when we may return to the fine simplicity of our forefathers.

When all the routines and details and the human bores get on our nerves, we just yearn to go away from here to somewhere else. To go fishing is a sound, a valid, and an accepted reason for an escape. It requires no explanation.

Freiheit ist das offene Fenster durch das Sonnenlicht auf den menschlichen Geist herein scheint.

Freedom is the open window through which pours the sunlight of the human spirit and human dignity.

There is no employing class, no working class, no farming class. You may pigeonhole a man or woman as a farmer or a worker or a professional man or an employer or even a banker. But the son of the farmer will be a doctor or a worker or even a banker, and his daughter a teacher. The son of a worker will be an employer - or maybe president.
