In Practice, Such Trifles As Contradictions In

Henry James Chews More Than He Bites Off.

I Would Rather Starve And Rot And Keep The Privilege Of Speaking The Truth As I See It, Than Of Holding All The Offices That Capital Has To Give From The Presidency Down.

If Washington Were President Now, He Would Have To Learn Our Ways Or Lose His Next Election. Only Fools And Theorists Imagine That Our Society Can Be Handled With Gloves Or Long Poles. One Must Make One's Self A Part Of It. If Virtue Won't Answer Our Purpose, We Must Use Vice, Or Our Opponents Will Put Us Out Of Office, And This Was As True In Washington's Day As It Is Now, And Always Will Be.
