Make Sure You're Right, Then Go Ahead.

I Would Rather Be Beaten And Be A Man Than To Be Elected And Be A Little Puppy Dog. I Have Always Supported Measures And Principles And Not Men. I Have Acted Fearless[ly] And Independent And I Never Will Regret My Course. I Would Rather Be Politically Buried Than To Be Hypocritically Immortalized.

You Can All Go To Heck; I Will Go To Texas

If I Could Rest Anywhere, It Would Be In Arkansas, Where The Men Are Of The Real Half-horse, Half-alligator Breed Such As Grows Nowhere Else On The Face Of The Universal Earth.

The Enemy Fought With Savage Fury, And Met Death With All Its Horrors, Without Shrinking Or Complaining: Not One Asked To Be Spared, But Fought As Long As They Could Stand Or Sit.

I Would Rather Be Politically Dead Than Hypocritically Immortalized.
