I do not look upon these United States as a finished product. We are still in the making.

When I came to the United States, I appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show as a 13-year-old, and I played a Mendelssohn Concerto, and it sounded like a talented 13-year-old with a lot of promise. But it did not sound like a finished product.

I don't believe a player is ever a finished product.

Remember, remember always, that all of us, and you and I especially, are descended from immigrants and revolutionists.

Yesterday, December seventh, 1941, a date which will live in infamy, the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan. We will gain the inevitable triumph, so help us God.

It devolves upon the United States to help to motorize the world.
