"They're in this war as much as the men who are ramming tanks and cannon through Mussolini's empire, or those waiting on the chalk cliffs of Dover for the invader who must come or fail...I asked them what they think of Roosevelt. I called him just Roosevelt. They called him Mister Roosevelt. It wouldn't do to quote what they said about our President. You wouldn't believe it all. I'll just report truthfully that the burden of what they said indicated that, next to a man named Churchill, Roosevelt is the greatest man in the world, for England he emerges from the American scene in the minds of even the most inarticulate and uncultured Britons as a sort of righteous Moses."
