Quotes
- “We have built no national temples but the Capitol; we consult no common oracle but the Constitution.”
- “The courage of New England was the "courage of conscience." It did not rise to that insane and awful passion, the love of war for itself.”
- “The final end of government is not to exert restraint but to do good.”
- “There was a state without king or nobles; there was a church without a bishop; there was a people governed by grave magistrates which it had selected, and by equal laws which it had framed.”
- “All that happens in the world of Nature or Man, — every war; every peace; every hour of prosperity; every hour of adversity; every election; every death ; every life; every success and every failure, — all change, — all permanence, — the perished leaf; the unutterable glory of stars, — all things speak truth to the thoughtful spirit.”
- “Happy is he who has laid up in his youth, and held fast in all fortune, a genuine and passionate love of reading.”
