When met with a problem I always ask myself what is the right thing to do and then I do it.

I hope it will not be irreverent in me to say, that if it be probable that God would reveal his will to others, on a point so connected with my duty, it might be supposed he would reveal it directly to me

...I do not mean to say that this general government is charged with the duty of redressing or preventing all the wrongs in the world; but I do think that it is charged with the duty of preventing and redressing all wrongs which are wrongs to itself.

We must settle this question now -- whether in a free government the minority have the right to break it up whenever they choose. If we fail, it will go far to prove the incapability of the people to govern themselves.

You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer.

Faith is not believing that God can, but that God will.

My Best Friend is a person who will give me a book I have not read.
