I want it said of me by those who knew me best, that I always plucked a thistle and planted a flower where I thought a flower would grow.

I never trusted a man who never smoked or drank.

The only person who is a worse liar than a faith healer is his patient.

Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?

I have always believed that a good laugh was good for both the mental and physical digestion.

It is not our frowning battlements...or the strength our gallant and disciplined army? These are not our reliance against a resumption of tyranny in our fair land... Our defense is in the preservation of the spirit which prizes liberty as the heritage of all men, in all lands, everywhere.

Determine that the thing can and shall be done and then... find the way.
