I know worrying works, because none of the stuff I worried about ever happened.
I love words but I don’t like strange ones. You don’t understand them and they don’t understand you. Old words is like old friends, you know ’em the minute you see ’em.
So the question rises: How much liberty can you get away with? Well, you get no more liberty than you give!
I see a good deal of talk from Washington about lowering taxes-I hope they do get ’em lowered enough so people can afford to pay ’em.
When you are satisfied, you are successful. For that’s all there is to success is satisfaction.
Why don’t somebody print the truth about our present economic situation? We spent six years of wild buying on credit – everything under the sun, whether we needed it or not – and now we are having to pay for ’em, and we are howling like a pet coon.
Prosperity this Winter is going to be enjoyed by everybody that is fortunate enough to get into the poor farm.
We have been just going like a house afire, and we couldent see any reason why we shouldent keep right on burning. Our tastes were acquired on credit, and we wanted to keep on enjoying ’em on credit.
It looks like the financial giants of the world have bungled as much as the diplomats and politicians. This would be a great time in the world for some man to come along that knew something.
It’s no laughing matter being a Republican in these perilous times. Anyone can be a Republican when the stock market is up, but when stocks are selling for no more than they’re worth, I tell you, being a Republican – it’s a sacrifice.
We don’t seem to be able to check crime, so why not legalize it and then tax it out of business?
I guess there is no two races of people in worse repute with everybody than the international bankers, and the folks that put all those pins in new shirts.
The bankers just got a good cussing by everybody for loaning too much money. Well, they got some awful nice buildings. So when a banker fails, he fails in splendor.
You have a wonderful organization. I understand you have ten thousand here. And if you count the ones in the various federal prisons, it brings your total membership up to around thirty thousand.
But we can’t alibi all our ills by just knocking the old banker. First he loaned the money, then the people all at once wanted it back, and he didn’t have it. Now he’s got it again, and is afraid to loan it, so the poor devil don’t know what to do.
Candidates have been telling you that if elected they would ‘pull you from this bog hole of financial misery.’ Now is a good chance to get even with ’em, by electing ’em, just to prove what a liar they are.
It looks to me like any man that wants to be President in times like these lacks something.
If this depression stays with us, the loser Tuesday is going to be the winner.
I don’t think either one of them knows what it’s all about, to be honest with you. Both sides are doing nothing but just looking towards the next election.
I am proud of the fact there is not a human being that I have got it in for. I never met a man I didn’t like.
