"An unlimited power to tax involves, necessarily, the power to destroy."
"Our destruction, should it come at all, will be from another quarter. From the inattention of the people to the concerns of their government."
"The world is governed more by appearances than realities, so that it is fully as necessary to seem to know something as to know it."

"Truth sits upon the lips of dying men."
"All malice has injustice at it's end, an end achieved by violence or by fraud; while both are sins that earn the hate of heaven, since fraud belongs exclusively to man, God hates it more and, therefore, far below, the fraudulent are placed and suffer most."
"Most truths are so naked that people feel sorry for them and cover them up, at least a little bit."
"I don't want any yes-men around me. I want everybody to tell me the truth even if it costs them their jobs."
