It tires me to talk to rich men. You expect a man of millions, the head of a great industry, to be a man worthhearing; but as a rule they don't know anything outside their own business.

I am a strong individualist by personal habit, inheritance, and conviction; but it is a mere matter of common sense to recognize that the State, the community, the citizens acting together, can do a number of things better than if they were left to individual action.

A President has a great chance; his position is almost that of a king and a prime minister rolled into one.

The pacifist is as surely a traitor to his country and to humanity as is the most brutal wrongdoer.

Never throughout history has a man who lived a life of ease left a name worth remembering.

Never hit if you can help it, but when you have to, hit hard. Never hit soft. You'll never get any thanks for hitting soft.

I am a part of everything that I have read.
