You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today.

You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.

In times like these men should utter nothing for which they would not be willingly responsible through time and in eternity.

If today you don't have time for those who gave all their time for you yesterday then tomorrow they will not have time to give to you who has no time today

Were it not for my little jokes, I could not bear the burdens of this office.

A house divided against itself cannot stand.
