Our family of states is already large enough to create embarrassment in the Senate, and a republic should not hold dependent provinces or possessions.

The life of a civilian is in what he says or writes, that of a soldier in what he does.
If my life is prolonged I will do all I can to add to the strength and prosperity of the United States, but nothing to extend its limits or to add new dangers by acquisition of foreign territory.
