Grover Cleveland actually said...

"If the design of this bill is to restore to the city named the privileges permitted by the law of 1880, it seems to be entirely unnecessary."

"I can not see that anything is gained by this legislation."

"I herewith return Senate bill No. 349, entitled 'An act for the promotion of anatomical science and to prevent the desecration of graves,' without my approval."

"The laws by which it is permitted should, in deference to a decent and universal sentiment, carefully guard against abuse and needless offense."
