I have always served the public to the best of my ability. Why? Because, like every other man, it is to my interest to do so.

If I had learned education I would not have had time to learn anything else.

It is not according to my mode of doing things, to bring a suit against a man that I have the power in my own hands to punish.

Law! What do I care about the law? Ain't I got the power?

I am not afraid of my enemies, but by God, you must look out when you get among your friends.

Never tell anyone what you are going to do till you've done it.

Never be a minion, always be an owner.
