To every man who faces life with real desire to do his part in everything, I appeal for a study of the Bible.

The most important single ingredient in the formula of success is knowing how to get along with people.

If we put corrupt men in public office and sneeringly acquiesce in their corruptions, then we are wrong ourselves.

One of the fundamental necessities in a representative government such as ours is to make certain that the men to whom the people delegate their power shall serve the people by whom they are elected, and not the special interests. I believe that every national officer, elected or appointed, should be forbidden to perform any service or receive any compensation, directly or indirectly, from interstate corporations; and a similar provision could not fail to be useful within the States.

The best lesson that any people can learn is that there is no patent cure-all which will make the body politic perfect, and that any man who is able glibly to answer every question as to how to deal with the evils of the body politic is at best a foolish visionary and at worst an evil-minded quack.

Each one must do his part if we wish to show that the nation is worthy of its good fortune.

Justice consists not in being neutral between right and wrong, but finding out the right and upholding it, wherever found, against the wrong.
