EXTRACTS AND SENTENCES FROM HIS
SPEECHES AND LETTERS.
After the battle of arms comes the bat
tle of history.
For the noblest man that lives there
still remains a conflict.
I would rather be beaten in right than
succeed in wrong.
Present evils always seem greater than
those that never come.
Growth is better than permanence, and
permanent growth is better than all
It is one of the precious mysteries of
sorrow, that it finds solace in unselfish
thought.
Statesmanship consists rather in re
moving the cause than in punfsliing, or
evading the results.
Ideas are the great wariors of the
world, and a war that has no ideas be
hind it is simply brutality.
Eternity alone will reveal to the human
race its debt of gratitude to the peerless
and immortal name of Washington.
I doubt if any man equaled Samuel
Adams in formulating and uttering the
fierce, clear and inexorable logic of the
revolution.
Through the whole web of national ex
istauce we trace the golden thread of hu
man progress toward a higher and better
estate.
Occasion may be the bugle call that
summons an army to battle, but the blast
of a bugle can never make soldiers or win
victories.
It is as much the duty of all good men
to protect and defend the reputation of
worthy public servants as to protect pub
lic rascals,
An act of bad faith on the part of a
slate or municipal corporation, like poi
son in the blood, will transmit its curse
to succeeding generations.
Bad faith on the part of an individual,
a city, or even a state, is a small evil in
comparison with the calamities which
follow bad faith on the part of a sover
eign government.
If there be one thing upon this earth,
that mankind love and admire better than
another, it is a brave man; it is a man
who dares to look the Devil in the face,
and tell him he is a devil.
We should do nothing iucousistant
with the spirit and genius of our institu
tions. We should do nothing for revenge
but everything for security; nothing for
the past, everything for the present and
future.
In the complex and delicately adjusted
relations of modern society, confidence in
promises lawfully made is the life blood
of trade and commerce. It is the vital
air, labor breathes. It is the light which
shines in the pathway of prosperity.
The germ of our political institutions,
the primary cells from which they were
evolved, was in the Xew England town,
and the vital force, the informing soul of
the town, was the town meeting, wiiich,
for all local concerns, was king, lords and
commons in all.
There is scarcely a conceivable form of
corruption or public wrong that does not
at least present itself at the caster's desk
and demand money. The legislature,
therefore, that stands at the cashier's
desk and watches with argus eyes the de
mand for payment over the public count
er is most certain to see all forms of pub
lic rascality.
I look forward with joy and hope to
the day when our brave people, one in
heart, one in their aspirations for free
dom and peace, shall see that the dark
ness through which we have traveled was
but a part of that steru but beueflceut
discipline by which the great Disposer of
events has been leading us on to a higher
and nobler national life.
There is no horizontal stratification of
society in this country like the rocks in
the earth, that holds one class down be
low forevermore, and let another come to
the surface to stay there forever. Our
stratification is like the ocean, where ev
ery individual drop is free Jto move, and
where from the eternal depth of the
mighty deep any drop may come up to
glitter on the highest wave that rolls.
The following is from his speech to the
Ohio legislature after his election to the
U. S. Senate, being a tribute to the char
acter of his competitor, Senator Tliurman :
"I say, moreover, that the flowers that
bloom over the garden wall of party poli.
tics are the sweetest and most fragrant
that bloom in the gardens of this world,
and where we can fairly pluck them and
enjoy their fragrance it is manly and de
lightful to do so."
Mr. Speaker, I know of nothing more
dangerous to a republic than to put into
its very midst four millions of people,
stripped of every attribute of citizenship,
robbed of the right of representation, but
fcound to pay taxes to the government.
If they can endure it, we cannot. The
murderer is to be pitied more than the
murdered man; the robber more than the
robbed. And we who di-fraud four mill
ion citizens of their rights are; injuring
ourselves vastly more than we are the
black man whom we rob.
