“You don’t need to know who’s playing on the White House tennis court to be a good president. A president has many roles.”

“All appointments hurt. Five friends are made cold or hostile for every appointment; no new friends are made. All patronage is perilous to men of real ability or merit. It aids only those who lack other claims to public support.”
