Economics, politics, and personalities are often inseparable.

Any man who takes a job with the idea that it is simply a springboard for something else is a chump. His attention will be more on the other things than on the job at hand and so he will fail.

Our democracy poses problems and these problems must and shall be solved by courageous leadership.

I want to make this perfectly clear: you can be sure that I will never be a yes-man except to my own conscience.

Economics, politics, and personalities are often inseparable.

I would rather be respected than elected.

It is my happy privilege to be able to stand here and tell you that if you elect me you will have elected a governor who has made no promises of preferment to any man or group.
