War is the rule of force, and peace is the reign of law.

No enterprise can exist for itself alone.

Workmen’s compensation, hours and conditions of labor are cold consolations, if there be no employment.

Governments do not make ideals, but ideals make governments.

Under our institutions the only way to perfect the Government is to perfect the individual citizen. It is necessary to reach the mind and soul of the individual. I know of no way that this can be done save through the influence of religion and education. By religion I do not mean fanaticism or bigotry; by education I do not mean the cant of the schools, but a broad and tolerant faith, loving thy neighbor as thyself, and a training and experience that enables the human mind to see into the heart of things.

Human nature provides sufficient distrust of all that is alien, so that there is no need of any artificial supply.

Any man who does not like dogs and want them about does not deserve to be in the White House.
