A Date Which Will Live in Infamy



Pearl Harbor was attacked on December 7, 1941. Roosevelt delivered this famous speech on Dec 8th.

The quote "A Date Which Will Live in Infamy" comes from President Franklin Roosevelt's 12/8/1941 speech describing the bombing of Pearl Harbor the day before.

Interesting tidbit: "the most famous line of the speech originally read "a date which will live in world history"; Roosevelt crossed out "world history" and replaced it with "infamy", as seen in the annotated copy of the original typewritten speech from the National Archives"
The quote means that date will have a bad reputation.
