"When a natural king becomes a titular..." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“The measure of mental health is the disposition to find good everywhere.”

“American mind a wilderness of opportunities.”

“Therefore the best fortress is to be found in the love of the people, for although you may have fortresses they will not save you if you are hated by the people.”

“The reflection upon my situation and that of this army produces many an uneasy hour when all around me are wrapped in sleep. Few people know the predicament we are in.”

“One of the things I think the next president has to do is to stop fanning people's fears. If we spend all our time feeding the American people fear and conflict and division, then they become fearful and conflicted and divided. And if we feed them hope and we feed them reason and tolerance, then they will become tolerant and reasonable and hopeful.”

“Our principle is that the Party commands the gun, and the gun must never be allowed to command the Party.”

“Once the people begin to reason, all is lost”

“A person who has during all time maintained the imposing position of spiritual head of four-fifths of the human race, and political head of the whole of it, must be granted the possession of executive abilities of the loftiest order.”
