Bless The Children, For The National Debt

Fishing Is A... Discipline In The Equality Of Men - For All Men Are Equal Before Fish.

To Go Fishing Is The Chance To Wash One's Soul With Pure Air, With The Rush Of The Brook, Or With The Shimmer Of Sun On Blue Water. It Brings Meekness And Inspiration From The Decency Of Nature, Charity Toward Tackle-makers, Patience Toward Fish, A Mockery Of Profits And Egos, A Quieting Of Hate, A Rejoicing That You Do Not Have To Decide A Darned Thing Until Next Week. And It Is Discipline In The Equality Of Men - For All Men Are Equal Before Fish.

Economic Depression Can Not Be Cured By Legislative Action Or Executive Pronouncement.

You Convey Too Great A Compliment When You Say That I Have Earned The Right To The Presidential Nomination. No Man Can Establish Such An Obligation Upon Any Part Of The American People. My Country Owes Me No Debt. It Gave Me, As It Gives Every Boy And Girl, A Chance. It Gave Me Schooling, Independence Of Action, Opportunity For Service And Honor. In No Other Land Could A Boy From A Country Village, Without Inheritance Or Influential Friends, Look Forward With Unbounded Hope. My Whole Life Has Taught Me What America Means. I Am Indebted To My Country Beyond Any Human Power To Repay.

Freedom Is The Open Window Through Which Pours The Sunlight Of The Human Spirit And Human Dignity.
