I am not afraid of the pen, or the scaffold, or the sword. I will tell the truth wherever I please. --------------- Pray for the dead and fight like hell for the living. --------------- My address is like my shoes. It travels with me. I abide where there is a fight against wrong. --------------- The employment of children is doing more to fill prisons, insane asylums, almshouses, reformatories, slums, and gin shops than all the efforts of reformers are doing to improve society. --------------- I asked a man in prison once how he happened to be there and he said he had stolen a pair of shoes. I told him if he had stolen a railroad he would be a United States Senator. --------------- Sit down and read. Educate yourself for the coming conflicts. --------------- No matter what the fight, don't be ladylike! God almighty made women and the Rockefeller gang of thieves made the ladies.

"Cynics build no bridges; they make no discoveries; no gaps
are spanned by them. Cynics may pride themselves in being realistic in their approach, but progress and the onward march of civilization demand an inspiration and motivation that cynicism never affords. If we want progress, we must take the forward look." --Paul L. McKay

For to tempt and to be tempted are things very nearly allied... whenever feeling has anything to do in the matter, no sooner is it excited than we have already gone vastly farther than we are aware of. --------------- I praise loudly. I blame softly. --------------- I shall be an autocrat, that's my trade; and the good Lord will forgive me, that's his. --------------- I am one of the people who love the why of things --------------- If Russians knew how to read, they would write me off

A leader who doesn't hesitate before he sends his nation into battle is not fit to be a leader. --------------- Ability hits the mark where presumption overshoots and diffidence falls short. --------------- Above all, this country is our own. Nobody has to get up in the morning and worry what his neighbors think of him. Being a Jew is no problem here. --------------- Arab sovereignty in Jerusalem just cannot be. This city will not be divided-not half and half, not 60-40, not 75-25, nothing. --------------- As President Nixon says, presidents can do almost anything, and President Nixon has done many things that nobody would have thought of doing. --------------- Authority poisons everybody who takes authority on himself. --------------- Being seventy is not a sin. --------------- Don't be humble... you're not that great. --------------- Fashion is an imposition, a reign on freedom. --------------- Glorious bouquets and storms of applause are the trimmings which every artist naturally enjoys. --------------- I can honestly say that I was never affected by the question of the success of an undertaking. If I felt it was the right thing to do, I was for it regardless of the possible outcome. |
