“He may not shine with courtly graces,
But yet, his kind, respectful air
To woman, whatsoe’er her place is,
It might be well if kings could share.
So, for the chivalric true gentleman,
Give me, I say, our own American.”
—Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1855–1919)
“The object of government in peace and in war is not the glory of rulers or of races, but the happiness of the common man.”
