"The people themselves, and not their servants,..." - Quote by Abraham Lincoln

“When I do good I feel good, when I do bad I feel bad, and that's my religion.”

“Commitment is what transforms a promise into reality.”

“I will prepare and some day my chance will come.”

“I think I will still feel that same appreciation for what [Winston] Churchill and others have said is the worst form of government except all the alternatives.”

“Democracy is morose, and runs to anarchy, but in the state, and in the schools, it is indispensable to resist the consolidation ofall men into a few men.”

“We hold the view that the people make the best judgment in the long run.”

“The little I am exposed to hurts my feelings. The only things I can really control are my songs and my behavior. The rest? If I focused on it, that would lead to insanity.”

“I think at times of significant stress people are going to be looking for something and they don't always know exactly what it is that they're looking for and they may opt for change even if they're not entirely confident what that change will bring.”

“Every one sees what you appear to be, few really know what you are, and those few dare not oppose themselves to the opinion of the many, who have the majesty of the state to defend them.”
