You and I are stuck with the necessity of taking the worst of two evils or none at all. So-I'm taking the immature Democrat as the best of the two. Nixon is impossible.

Men make history and not the other way around. In periods where there is no leadership, society stands still. Progress occurs when courageous, skillful leaders seize the opportunity to change things for the better.

There isn't any question about Washington's greatness. If his administration had been a failure, there would have been no United States. A lesser man couldn't have done it.... Washington was both a great administrator and a great leader, a truly great man in every way.

An honest public servant can't become rich in politics. He can only attain greatness and satisfaction by service.

Justice remains the greatest power on earth. To that tremendous power alone will we submit.

In my opinion eight years as president is enough and sometimes too much for any man to serve in that capacity.

Tact is the ability to step on a man's toes without messing up the shine on his shoes.
