There are men so incorrigibly lazy that no inducement that you can offer will tempt them to work; so eaten up by vice that virtue is abhorrent to them, and so inveterably dishonest that theft is to them a master passion.

The robb'd that smiles, steals something from the thief; He robs himself that spends a bootless grief.

I think coercive taxation is theft, and government has a moral duty to keep it to a minimum.

We must wake ourselves up! Or somebody else will take our place, and bear our cross, and thereby rob us of our crown.

A man's labor is not only his capital but his life. When it passes it returns never more. To utilize it, to prevent its wasteful squandering, to enable the poor man to bank it up for use hereafter, this surely is one of the most urgent tasks before civilization.

I consider that the chief dangers which confront the coming century will be religion without the Holy Ghost, Christianity without Christ, forgiveness without repentance, salvation without regeneration, politics without God, and heaven without hell.
