What are 3 important quotes from the Four Freedom speech
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

"But we learn much from the lessons of the past years in Europe—particularly the lesson of Norway, whose essential seaports were captured by treachery and surprise built up over a series of years."

"Even when the World War broke out in 1914, it seemed to contain only small threat of danger to our own American future."

"While the Napoleonic struggles did threaten interests of the United States because of the French foothold in the West Indies and in Louisiana, and while we engaged in the War of 1812 to vindicate our right to peaceful trade, it is nevertheless clear that neither France nor Great Britain, nor any other nation, was aiming at domination of the whole world."
