"The first thing that the individual man has to do is to pull his own weight, to earn his own way, not to be a drag on the community."

"Each one of us must remember that any one may and will at times slip."

"In the war you had to have patriotism, but there was but little to be made of the man who was patriotic but who had a tendency to run away."

"In saying good-by to you I want to say that it has been the greatest pleasure to see you."
