"Loyalty to country ALWAYS. Loyalty to government, when it deserves it."
"I was gratified to be able to answer promptly, and I did. I said I didn’t know."
"Don’t go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first."
"All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence; then success is sure."
"I haven't any right to criticize books, and I don't do it except when I hate them. I often want to criticize Jane Austen, but her books madden me so that I can't conceal my frenzy from the reader; and therefore I have to stop every time I begin. Every time I read Pride and Prejudice I want to dig her up and beat her over the skull with her own shin-bone."
