Had I been chosen President again, I am certain I could not have lived another year.

Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.

There are two ways to conquer and enslave a country. One is by the sword. The other is by debt.

Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide.

Always stand on principle even if you stand alone.

But a Constitution of Government once changed from Freedom, can never be restored. Liberty, once lost, is lost forever.

Power always thinks... that it is doing God's service when it is violating all his laws.

One useless man is a shame, two is a law firm, and three is a Congress.

The jaws of power are always open to devour, and her arm is always stretched out, if possible, to destroy the freedom of thinking, speaking, and writing.

There is danger from all men. The only maxim of a free government ought to be to trust no man living with power to endanger the public liberty.

Children should be educated and instructed in the principles of freedom.

Be willing to be sneered at than to be approved, counting the cross of Christ greater riches than all the treasures of Washington, London, Paris, or Moscow.

If you would know these demands of life, you would gain a quicker success, at a greater pace, with less stress than otherwise.

The root of joy is gratefulness...It is not joy that makes us grateful; it is gratitude that makes us joyful.

Nobody is so heartily despised as a pusillanimous, lazy, good-for-nothing, land-lubber; a sailor has no bowels of compassion for him.

Never neglect an opportunity to play leap-frog; it is the best of all games, and, unlike the terribly serious and conscientious pastimes of modern youth, will never become professionalized.

If you practice the holy exercise of Spiritual Communion a good many times each day, within a month you will see yourself completely changed.

For me, it was more a dramatic shift to go from the stage to the screen.

One Direction is the main thing I'm doing and I'm 100 per cent dedicated to the group.
