"Although the health laws of the States should be found to need no present revisal by Congress, yet commerce claims that their attention be ever awake to them."

"We are firmly convinced, and we act on that conviction, that with nations as with individuals our interests soundly calculated will ever be found inseparable from our moral duties."

"I shall now enter on the duties to which my fellow-citizens have again called me, and shall proceed in the spirit of those principles which they have approved."

"But who can limit the extent to which the federative principle may operate effectively?"
