Fpa Began Trials

Famous quotes containing the words began and/or trials:

    I now first began to inhabit my house, I may say, when I began to use it for warmth as well as shelter.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    On the whole, yes, I would rather be the Chief Justice of the United States, and a quieter life than that which becomes at the White House is more in keeping with the temperament, but when taken into consideration that I go into history as President, and my children and my children’s children are the better placed on account of that fact, I am inclined to think that to be President well compensates one for all the trials and criticisms he has to bear and undergo.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
