  12. Ramp Mr. President, Mr. Speaker, Members of the Seventy-seventh Congress: I address you, the Members of the members of this new Congress, at a moment unprecedented in the history of the Union.

  17. Three points of discovery I want to talk for a few minutes with the people of the United States about banking—with the comparatively few who understand the mechanics of banking but more particularly with the overwhelming majority who use banks for the making of deposits and the drawing of checks. I want to tell you what has been done in the last few days, why it was done, and what the next steps are going to be.  Franklin D. Roosevelt, March 12, 1933 Fireside Chat

  18. Q & A Build in time – it’s one way adults learn. At end or sprinkled throughout? Your call, depending on style, how much material you have to cover, type of audience.

  21. Dessert And so, once again, I think of the young Jewish boy from the Carpathian Mountains. He has accompanied the old man I have become throughout these years of quest and struggle. And together we walk towards the new millennium, carried by profound fear and extraordinary hope. Elie Wiesel, “The Perils of Indifference,” April 12, 1999
