If you've made up your mind you can do something, you're absolutely RIGHT.

The United States must be neutral in fact as well as in name.... We must be impartial in thought as well as in actiona nationthat neither sits in judgment upon others nor is disturbed in her own counsels and which keeps herself fit and free to do what is honest and disinterested and truly serviceable for the peace of the world.

There is no cause half so sacred as the cause of the people. There is no idea so uplifting as the idea of the service of humanity.

...men are not put into this world to go the path of ease, they are put into this world to go the path of pain and struggle.

I am a most unhappy man. I accidentally ruined my country. A great industrial nation is now controlled by its system of credit. Our government is no longer based on the freedom of opinion, nor on the conviction and the majority decision, it is now a government which is subjected to the conviction and the compulsion of a small group of dominant men.

No man ever saw a government. I live in the midst of the Government of the United States, but I never saw the Government of the United States.

Tell me what is right and I will fight for it.
