There are all sorts of people undone,
And there is little or no fun done;
Small justice shown, and still less pity.”

“I would dodge, not lie, in the national interest.”

“If there be no nobility of descent in a nation, all the more indispensable is it that there should be nobility of ascent—a character in them that bear rule, so fine and high and pure, that as men come within the circle of its influence, they involuntarily pay homage to that which is the one pre-eminent distinction, the Royalty of Virtue.”
—Henry Codman Potter (1835–1908)
