“This session of Congress is also to relieve the farmer again, relieve him of any encouragement that he might have received during the last one.”

“Take the diplomacy out of war and the thing would fall flat in a week.”

“You politicians have got to look further ahead; you always got a Putter in your hands, when you ought to have a Driver.”

“A little matter will move a party, but it must be something great that moves a nation.”

“When will Labour learn that you cannot build Jerusalem in Brussels.”

“I must have dialogue with the Chinese government, and dialogue requires compromise. Therefore, I'm speaking for genuine self-rule, not for independence.”

“The universal regard for money is the one hopeful fact in our civilization.”

“Politicians are forever coming up with 'solutions' to virtually every imaginable imperfection in life. But, if we give them more power and more of our money, we are very unlikely to end up better off on net balance.”

“What would you do if money was no object?”
