When I hear a man preach, I like to see him act as if he were fighting bees.
A woman is the only thing I am afraid of that I know will not hurt me.
Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other.
Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?
America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.
Avoid popularity if you would have peace.
Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.
Don't interfere with anything in the Constitution. That must be maintained, for it is the only safeguard of our liberties.
No man has a good enough memory to be a successful liar.
Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power.
The Lord prefers common-looking people. That is why he makes so many of them.
Things may come to those who wait, but only the things left by those who hustle.
Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves.
To ease another's heartache is to forget one's own.
We live in the midst of alarms; anxiety beclouds the future; we expect some new disaster with each newspaper we read.
What is conservativism? Is it not the adherence to the old and tried against the new and untried?
You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.
You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today.
You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.
You have to do your own growing no matter how tall your grandfather was.
