Passage 1Monroe Doctrine (1823)excerpt adapted from National Archives     The Monroe Doctrine was delivered by President Monroe, during his seventh annual message to Congress.     In the wars of the European powers in matters relating to themselves, we have never taken any part. Nor does it comport1 with our policy to do so. It is only when our rights are invaded or seriously menaced that we make preparations for our defense. We owe it, therefore, to candor2 and to the amicable relations existing between the United States and those powers to declare that we should consider any attempt on their part to extend their system to this hemisphere as dangerous to our peace and safety. With the existing colonies or dependencies of any European power we have not interfered and shall not interfere. But with the Governments who have declared their independence and maintain it, and whose independence we have acknowledged, we could not view any interposition3 for the purpose of oppressing them, or controlling in any other manner their destiny, by any European power in any other light than as the manifestation4 of an unfriendly disposition toward the United States.1.  to be fitting2.  honest, or sincere expression3.  the act of putting oneself between two things, such as citizens and their government4.  evidence, or proofPassage 2Theodore Roosevelt's Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine (1905)excerpt adapted from National Archives     Delivered by President Theodore Roosevelt, during his Annual Message to Congress, December 6, 1904.     The steady aim of this Nation, as of all enlightened nations, should be to strive to bring ever nearer the day when there shall prevail throughout the world the peace of justice.

Many times, people who were shortsighted, enervated1 by ease or by luxury, or misled have shrunk from doing duty and self-sacrifice. They have sought to hide from their own minds their shortcomings, their ignoble2 motives, instead calling them love of peace. The peace of tyrranous3 terror, the peace of craven4 weakness, the peace of injustice, all should be shunned as we shun unrighteous war. The goal to set before us as a nation, the goal for all mankind, should be the attainment of peace of justice.
