"You have only one way to convince..." - Quote by George Washington

“The Constitution is the guide which I never will abandon.”

“I never mean, unless some particular circumstances should compel it, to possess another slave by purchase, it being among my first wishes to see some plan adopted, by which slavery in this country may be abolished by law.”

“We can not guarantee success, we can strive to deserve it.”

“Continued eloquence is wearisome.”

“Phrases and their actual meanings: My teacher has never liked me. Expect a phone call before lunch from the teacher informing you that your child has been launching hot dogs by compressing them inside a small Thermos and then removing the lid quickly.”

“Kind words do not cost much. They never blister the tongue or lips. They make other people good-natured. They also produce their own image on men's souls, and a beautiful image it is.”

“Learn to speak by listening.”

“Women sometimes go too far, it's true. But it's only when you go too far that others listen.”

“We only consult the ear because the heart is wanting.”
