What is conservatism? 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. Abraham Lincoln

~*~

Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.

~*~

Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power.

~*~

The probability that we may fail in the struggle ought not to deter us from the support of a cause we believe to be just.

~*~

When you have got an elephant by the hind leg, and he is trying to run away, it's best to let him run.

You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today.
