William Jennings BryanThis nation is able to legislate for its own people on every question, without waiting for the aid or consent of any other nation on earth.
William Jennings BryanYou shall not press down upon the brow of labor this crown of thorns; you shall not crucify mankind upon a cross of gold.

William Jennings BryanService is the measure of greatness; it always has been true; it is true today, and it always will be true, that he is greatest who does the most of good. Nearly all of our controversies and combats grow out of the fact that we are trying to get something from each other--there will be peace when our aim is to do something for each other. The human measure of a human life is its income; the divine measure of a life is its outgo, its overflow--its contribution to the welfare of all.
William Jennings BryanIn commemoration of the fact that France was our ally in securing independence the citizens of that nation joined with the citizens of the United States in placing in New York harbor an heroic statue representing Liberty enlightening the world. What course shall our nation pursue? Send the statue of Liberty back to France and borrow from England a statue of William the Conqueror?
