Fame is like a shaved pig with a greased tail, and it is only after it has slipped through the hands of some thousands, that some fellow, by mere chance, holds on to it!

I have always supported measures and principles and not men.

Throughout the day no time for memorandums now. Go ahead! Liberty and independence forever.

I would rather be politically dead than hypocritically immortalized.

You can go to hell -- I'm going to Texas.

Remember these words when I am dead. First be sure you're right, then go ahead.

My tongue speak what my heart thinks.
