If something works, it should not be changed. Agree it disagree? Reasoning:

Disagree

Explanation:

There are certain times when this statement is true, and those usually are disastrous times, where no replacement can be found.

However, here is an example. If your plane is malfunctioning, and your pilot was able to land it, while it was falling apart. The engineer there says he can fix the plane up, albeit not perfectly. However, it is stated that a second plane that is in perfect condition is available. Would you continue to stay in the fracturing plane, or would you take another one? The fracturing one "still works", but poses much more of a risk then the functioning plane.

disagree

Explanation:

just because something works does not mean it should stay the same, because it could still be improved or updated

which speech are you talking about?

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
