"Remember that a government big enough to give you everything you want is also big enough to take away everything you have."

“We have the right as individuals to give away as much of our own money as we please in charity; but as members of Congress we have no right to appropriate a dollar of the public money.”

“I have always supported measures and principles and not men.”

“Be always sure you are right - then go ahead.”

“Since you have chosen to elect a man with a timber toe to succeed me, you may all go to hell and I will go to Texas.”
