Honor lies in honest toil.
I have considered the pension list of the republic a roll of honor.
It is a condition which confronts us — not a theory.
No man has ever yet been hanged for breaking the spirit of a law.
Officeholders are the agents of the people, not their masters.
The ship of Democracy, which has weathered all storms, may sink through the mutiny of those aboard.
