I Have A Congress On

No Investment On Earth Is So Safe, So Sure, So Certain To Enrich Its Owners As Undeveloped Realty. I Always Advise My Friends To Place Their Savings In Realty Near A Growing City. There Is No Such Savings Bank Anywhere.

I Feel Obliged To Withhold My Approval Of The Plan To Indulge In Benevolent And Charitable Sentiment Through The Appropriation Of Public Funds ... I Find No Warrant For Such An Appropriation In The Constitution.

He Who Takes The Oath Today To Preserve, Protect, And Defend The Constitution Of The United States Only Assumes The Solemn Obligation Which Every Patriotic Citizen . . . Should Share With Him. . . . Your Every Voter, As Surely As Your Chief Magistrate, Under The Same High Sanction, Though In A Different Sphere, Exercises A Public Trust.

Officeholders Are The Agents Of The People, Not Their Masters.

All Must Admit That The Reception Of The Teachings Of Christ Results In The Purest Patriotism, In The Most Scrupulous Fidelity To Public Trust, And In The Best Type Of Citizenship.
