There Is No Dignity Quite

Man Everywhere Has An Unconquerable Desire To Be The Master Of His Own Destiny.

The Two Great Political Parties Of The Nation Have Existed For The Purpose, Each In Accordance With Its Own Principles, Of Undertaking To Serve The Interests Of The Whole Nation. Their Members Of The Congress Are Chosen With That Great End In View.

I Think The Senate Ought To Realize That I Have To Have About Me Those In Whom I Have Confidence; And Unless They Find A Real Blemish On A Man, I Do Not Think They Ought To Make Partisan Politics Out Of Appointments To The Cabinet.

[the Reason A Man Has] So Much Trouble With The Senate Is That There Isn't A Man In The Senate Who Doesn't Think He Is Better Suited To Be President Than The President, And Thinks He Might Have Been President Except For Luck.

We Cannot Weaken Or Destroy Political Parties In Ther United States Without Weakening Or Destroying The Rule Of The People.... Those Who Support Party Organization And Submit To Party Discipline Are Supporting The Only Course Yet Discovered For Orderly Government By The People.
