Which of the following quotes illustrates one of the author’s ideas? “[the boy] thought of all the married shepherds he had known. they had a difficult time convincing their wives that they had to go off into the distant fields. love required them to stay with the people they loved.” “no matter what he does, every person on earth plays a central role in the history of the world. and normally he doesn’t know it.” “i’m only interested in the present. if you can always concentrate on the present, you’ll be a happy man. you’ll see that there is life in the desert, that there are stars in the heavens, and that tribesmen fight because they are part of the human race.” “now, i’m beginning what i could have started ten years ago. but i’m happy at least that i didn’t wait twenty years.”

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
