"Now, another thing, I have said that in all the different sections we are alike."

"I speak for all Americans today, when I say that we watch with the deepest concern the sick-bed of the English king."

"And more than that, remember that the army has conquered not to bring military rule."

"Every system of government, no matter how good, has the advantage of its virtues, and the quality of the representative depends upon the character of his constituency."
