The trouble with me is that I like to talk too much.
The world is not going to be saved by legislation.
I love judges, and I love courts. They are my ideals, that typify on earth what we shall meet hereafter in heaven under a just God.
No, the only things which do not bother me are the elements. I can overcome them without a fight. All one has to do to get the best of the elements is to stand pat and one will win.
I have come to the conclusion that the major part of the work of a President is to increase the gate receipts of expositions and fairs and bring tourists to town.
If this humor be the safety of our race, then it is due largely to the infusion into the American people of the Irish brain.
I do not know much about politics, but I am trying to do the best I can with this administration until the time shall come for me to turn it over to somebody else.
A system in which we may have an enforced rest from legislation for two years is not bad.
Action for which I become responsible, or for which my administration becomes responsible, shall be within the law.
I am afraid I am a constant disappointment to my party. The fact of the matter is, the longer I am president the less of a party man I seem to become.
