A leader leads by example, not by force

Appearances matter and remember to smile.

God grants liberty only to those who love it and are always ready to guard and defend it.

Give to every other human being every right that you claim for yourself - that is my doctrine.

Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose.

The paradox of courage is that a man must be a little careless of his life even in order to keep it.

Before you can control conditions, you must first control yourself.

A tiny and closed fraternity of privileged men, elected by no one, and enjoying a monopoly sanctioned and licensed by government.

The best executive is the one who has sense enough to pick good men to do what he wants done, and self-restraint to keep from meddling with them while they do it.

Democracy means government by the uneducated, while aristocracy means government by the badly educated.

To lead the people, walk behind them.

The Democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.

Liberty does not exist in the absence of morality.

You're not to be so blind with patriotism that you can't face reality. Wrong is wrong, no matter who does it or says it.

The more you read about politics, the more you got to admit that each party is worse than the other.

Fear is the foundation of most governments.

So long as you do not achieve social liberty, whatever freedom is provided by the law is of no avail to you.

Men are Moved by two levers only: fear and self interest

We do not need magic to transform our world. We carry all of the power we need inside ourselves already.

A handful of soldiers is always better than a mouthful of arguments.

No government can be long secure without a formidable opposition.
