Do Not Let Your Bachelor Ways Crystallize

Conscience Is The Authentic Voice Of God To You.

Disunion And Civil War Are At Hand; And Yet I Fear Disunion And War Less Than Compromise. We Can Recover From Them. The Free States Alone, If We Must Go On Alone, Will Make A Glorious Nation.

One Point In My Public Life: I Did All I Could For The Reform Of The Civil Service, For The Building Up Of The South, For A Soundcurrency, Etc., Etc., But I Never Forgot My Party.... I Knew That All Good Measures Would Suffer If My Administration Was Followed By The Defeat Of My Party. Result, A Great Victory In 1880. Executive And Legislature Both Completely Republican.

I Am A Radical In Thought (and Principle) And A Conservative In Method (and Conduct).

My Judgment Is That Neither House Of Congress, Nor Both Combined, Have Any Right To Interfere In The Count. It Is For The Vice-president To Do It All.... There Should Be No Compromise Of Our Constitutional Rights.
