I am neither bitter nor cynical but I do wish there was less immaturity in political thinking.

Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking.

He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would suffice.

A man who cannot think is not an educated man however many college degrees he may have acquired.

I still live, I still think: I still have to live, for I still have to think.

The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently.
