I Am A Freeman And Jolly As

It Is The Desire Of The Good People Of The Whole Country That Sectionalism As A Factor In Our Politics Should Disappear.

My Policy Is Trust, Peace, And To Put Aside The Bayonet. I Do Not Think The Wise Policy Is To Decide Contested Elections In The States By The Use Of The National Army.

Do Not Let Your Bachelor Ways Crystallize So That You Can't Soften Them When You Come To Have A Wife And A Family Of Your Own.

I Have The Greatest Aversion To Being A Candidate On A Ticket With A Man Whose Record As An Upright Public Man Is To Be In Question--to Be Defended From The Beginning To The End.

The Melancholy Thing In Our Public Life Is The Insane Desire To Get Higher.
