Life, lift the full goblet--away with all sorrow-- The circle of friendship what freedom would sever? To-day is our own, and a fig for to-morrow-- Here's to the Fourth and our country forever.

Accustomed as I am to public speaking, I know the futility of it.

I hate the pollyanna pest who says that all is for the best.

Drinking is bad taste but tastes good.

When the political columnists say 'Every thinking man' they mean themselves, and when candidates appeal to 'Every intelligent voter' they mean everybody who is going to vote for them

The trouble with this country is that there are too many politicians who believe, with a conviction based on experience, that you can fool all of the people all of the time.

There are hundreds who can stand failure to one who can stand success; the good loser is far more common than the good winner.
