In 1946,the three nations merge the zone of France, Britain and US to be governed by one government, USSR strongly protested against it as the merged zones account for 75% of Germany's original population. In reaction,USSR cut off all land routes linking Berlin and the Western zone,claiming that it was to protect USSR's economy. The event was known as Berlin Blockade.
What Jackson meant by this quote is if one man stands up for what he believes in, many will follow because it is not that they do not believe in what they are following it is only because they are just too afraid to be the one to stand up.This also means that one man standing up for something he truly believes in is greater than many people standing up for something they don't. This idea influenced his leadership greatly because Andrew Jackson had qualities most Americans admired. He was a patriot, a self-made man, and a war hero and this quote adds to that by showing Americans what he truly believed in and in turn making people want to follow him.

Explanation:
This quote comes from the now famous Four Freedoms speech, delivered by Roosevelt as the State of the Union address on January 6, 1941. The international context was very negative. Hitler and his Axis allies were winning in Europe. Britain was greatly menaced and the Japanese were gearing up for all-out war in the Pacific and in Asia.
Roosevelt, aware that scientific progress had eliminated the physical advantage of the USA being separated from Europe and Asia by such vast expanses of water had been arming and funding the British for years and had also increased military spending and the Navy in order to keep Japan at bay.
He knew that once Hitler had conquered Europe and Japan had conquered the East, all the populations and resources of these vast reasons would be used to directly attack the USA, which would eventually find itself in numeric inferiority so in order to prevent such a dark future he chose to send weapons, supplies and money to the British.
