—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (18221893)
“I have known a German Prince with more titles than subjects, and a Spanish nobleman with more names than shirts.”

“As for the tenets of the Brahmans, we are not so much concerned to know what doctrines they held, as that they were held by any. We can tolerate all philosophies.... It is the attitude of these men, more than any communication which they make, that attracts us.”
