This is similar to the "Figure out the Lyrics" quizzes by various Sporclers that I love to so much. The only difference is that this is an excerpt from an historical speech.

It's a terrific idea--but why only one sentence of it? The fewer words there are, the harder it is to hit on words that are right. (Mind you, the first four words I guessed were the first four words of the quote.) There's certainly room for a much larger excerpt.

I started by putting that whole section of the speech in, but it was so long, that i thought i would pare it down to just this one excerpt.

Good thing I figured it out before hovering over the "source" link.

wonderful idea. Before I started, this was the first quote that popped into my head. I thought it would either be this, an FDR quote or a Churchill quote. Would love to see longer and more quizzes.
