Famous quotes containing the words american, whig and/or journal:

    “What a prodigious growth this English race, especially the American branch of it, is having! How soon will it subdue and occupy all the wild parts of this continent and of the islands adjacent. No prophecy, however seemingly extravagant, as to future achievements in this way [is] likely to equal the reality.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    “A Whig is properly what is called a Trimmer—that is, a coward to both sides of the question, who dare not be a knave nor an honest man, but is a sort of whiffling, shuffling, cunning, silly, contemptible, unmeaning negation of the two.”
    —William Hazlitt (1778–1830)

    “After the writer’s death, reading his journal is like receiving a long letter.”
    —Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)
