Some day I will be better remembered.

The admitted right of a government to prevent the influx of elements hostile to its internal peace and security may not be questioned, even where there is not treaty stipulation on the subject.

He who takes the oath today to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States only assumes the solemn obligation which every patriotic citizen . . . should share with him. . . . Your every voter, as surely as your Chief Magistrate, under the same high sanction, though in a different sphere, exercises a public trust.

Well, my dear fellow what did you expect, champagne?

My greatest trials come through those professing to be near and attached friends, who expect things.

The United States is not a nation to which peace is a necessity.

I have considered the pension list of the republic a roll of honor.
