Perhaps The Happiest Moment Of

To Vote Is Like The Payment Of A Debt, A Duty Never To Be Neglected, If Its Performance Is Possible.

Wars Will Remain While Human Nature Remains. I Believe In My Soul In Cooperation, In Arbitration; But The Soldier's Occupation We Cannot Say Is Gone Until Human Nature Is Gone.

It Is The Debtor That Is Ruined By Hard Times.

What Congress And The Popular Sentiment Approve Is Rarely Defeated By Reason Of Constitutional Objections. I Trust The Measure Will Turn Out Well. It Is A Great Relief To Me. Defeat In This Way, After A Full And Public Hearing Before This [electoral] Commission, Is Not Mortifying In Any Degree, And Success Will Be In All Respects More Satisfactory.

I Saw The Man My Friendwants Pardoned, Thomas Flinton. He Is A Bright, Good-looking Fellow.... Of His Innocence All Are Confident. The Governor Strikes Me As A Man Seeking Popularity, Who Lacks The Independence And Manhood To Do Right At The Risk Of Losing Popularity. Afraid Of What Will Be Said. He Is Prejudiced Against The Irish And Democrats.
