Never miss a political meeting if you think there's the slightest chance you'll wish you'd been there.

Promptly report your action to the one who requested it.

Don't get mad except on purpose.

A prompt, generous letter of thanks can seal a commitment which otherwise might disappear when the going gets rough.

In politics, you have your word and your friends; go back on either and you're dead.

The winner in a political contest is determined by the number and the effectiveness of the activists on the respective sides.

You cannot make friends of your enemies by making enemies of your friends.
