The best time to listen to a politician is when he's on a stump on a street corner in the rain late at night when he's exhausted. Then he doesn't lie.

You can't get unless you give. And you have to give without wanting to get.

I class myself as a manual laborer.

The flood of money that gushes into politics today is a pollution of democracy.

The President's decisions make the weather, and if he is great enough, change the climate, too.

Whether a man is burdened by power or enjoys power; whether he is trapped by responsibility or made free by it; whether he is moved by other people and outer forces or moves them - this is of the essence of leadership.

If you make a living, if you earn your own money, you're free - however free one can be on this planet.
