If we ever pass out as a great nation we ought to put on our tombstone 'America died from a delusion that she had moral leadership'.
The greatest loss of time is delay and expectation.
That's what makes us a great nation. We take the little things serious, and the big ones as a joke.
America is a great country, but you can't live in it for nothing.
Our whole Depression was brought on by gambling, not in the stock market alone but in expanding and borrowing and going in debt... all just to make some easy money quick.
It's almost worth the Great Depression to learn how little our big men know.
It's great to be great, but its greater to be human.
You must judge a man's greatness by how much he will be missed.
