Miscellany



  • [A great nation is saved] by speaking, writing, voting reasonably; by smiting corruption swiftly; by good temper between parties; by the people knowing true men when they see them, and preferring them as leaders to rabid partisans and empty quacks -William James
    Human kindness has never weakened the stamina or softened the fiber of a free people. A nation does not have to be cruel in order to be tough. -Franklin Roosevelt, Radio address 1940
