”I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man.”
”The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.”
”I’m a greater believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more I have of it.”
”When angry, count ten before you speak; if very angry, a hundred.”
”Do you want to know who you are? Don’t ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you.”
”Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom.”
”The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.”
”The most valuable of all talents is that of never using two words when one will do.”
