A time will come when a politician who has willfully made war and promoted international dissension will be as sure of the dock and much surer of the noose than a private homicide. It is not reasonable that those who gamble with men's lives should not stake their own. ↗

Words impress me. If a man can speak eloquently and beautifully to me, I just melt on the floor. ↗

When I give a man an office, I watch him carefully to see whether he is swelling or growing. ↗

This is like one thing that I've tried to do, and I think successfully, that when you realize that nothing really belongs to you, you begin to appreciate having an understanding of just where your head is at, and you feel so much better. ↗
