(B)
Four Freedoms
By Franklin Roosevelt
In the future days，which we seek to make secure，we look forward to a world founded upon four essential human freedoms.
The first is freedom of speech and expression—everywhere in the world.
The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way—everywhere in the world.
The third is freedom from want—which，translated into world terms，means economic understandings which will secure to every nation a healthy peace time life for its inhabitants—everywhere in the world.
The fourth is freedom from fear—which，translated into world terms，means a worldwide reduction of armaments(军备) to such a point and in such a thorough fashion that no nation will be in a position to commit(犯错误) an act of physical agGREssion against any neighbor—anywhere in the world.
That is no vision of a distant millennium(一千年). It is a definite basis for a kind of world attainable in our own time and generation. That kind of world is the very antithesis of the so-called new order of tyranny which the dictators seek to create with the crash of a bomb.
Since the beginning of our American history we have been engaged in change—in a perpetual(永久的) peaceful revolution—a revolution which goes on steadily，quietly adjusting itself to changing conditions—without the concentration camp or the quicklime in the ditch. The world order which we seek is the cooperation of free countries，working together in a friendly，civilized society.
This nation has placed its destiny in the hands and heads and hearts of its millions of free men and women；and its faith in freedom under the guidance of God. Freedom means the supremacy of human rights everywhere. Our support goes to those who struggle to gain those rights or keep them. Our strength is in our unity of purpose.
To that high concept there can be no end save victory. (Words：320；Minutes：6')
