My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with your failure.

The man who stands by and says nothing, when the peril of his government is discussed, can not be misunderstood. If not hindered, he is sure to help the enemy.

Believing everybody is dangerous, but believing nobody is more dangerous.

No man ever got lost on a straight road.

If you intend to go to work there is no better place than right where you are; if you do not intend to go to work, you can not get along anywhere.

The working men are the basis of all governments, for the plain reason that they are the most numerous.

This human struggle and scramble for office, for a way to live without work, will finally test the strength of our institutions.
