My Policy Is Trust Peace And To

Crimes Increase As Education, Opportunity, And Property Decrease. Whatever Spreads Ignorance, Poverty And, Discontent Causes Crime.... Criminals Have Their Own Responsibility, Their Own Share Of Guilt, But They Are Merely The Hand.... Whoever Interferes With Equal Rights And Equal Opportunities Is In Some Real Degree, Responsible For The Crimes Committed In The Community.

All Appointments Hurt. Five Friends Are Made Cold Or Hostile For Every Appointment; No New Friends Are Made. All Patronage Is Perilous To Men Of Real Ability Or Merit. It Aids Only Those Who Lack Other Claims To Public Support.

I Hope You Will Be Benefitted By Your Churchgoing. Where The Habit Does Not Christianize, It Generally Civilizes. That Is Reason Enough For Supporting Churches, If There Were No Higher.

The Man Of Large And Conspicuous Public Service In Civil Life Must Be Content Without The Presidency. Still More, The Availability Of A Popular Man In A Doubtful State Will Secure Him The Prize In A Close Contest Against The First Statesman Of The Country Whose State Is Safe.

As Friends Go It Is Less Important To Live.
