Text Quotes
In these sad and ominous days of mad fortune chasing, every patriotic, thoughtful citizen, whether he fishes or not, should lament that we have not among our countrymen more fishermen (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
No investment on earth is so safe, so sure, so certain to enrich its owners as undeveloped realty. I always advise my friends to place their savings in realty near a growing city. There is no such savings bank anywhere (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
I believe that the public temper is such that the voters of the land are prepared to support the party which gives the best promise of administering the government in the honest, simple, and plain manner which is consistent with its character and purposes. They have learned that mystery and concealment in the management of their affairs cover tricks and betrayal. The statesmanship they require consists in honesty and frugality, a prompt response to the needs of the people as they arise, and a vigilant protection of all their varied interests (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
My greatest trials come through those professing to be near and attached friends, who expect things (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
As we view the achievements of aggregated capital, we discover the existence of trusts, combinations, and monopolies, while the citizen is struggling far in the rear or is trampled to death beneath an iron heel. Corporations, which should be the carefully restrained creatures of the law and the servants of the people, are fast becoming the people’s masters (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
I cannot help but think it perilous to suffer these lands or the sources of their irrigation to fall into the hands of monopolies, which by such means may exercise lordship over the areas dependent on their treatment for productiveness (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
The wage earner relies upon the ventures of confident and contented capital. This failing him, his condition is without alleviation, for he can neither prey on the misfortune of others nor hoard his labor (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
It is no credit to me to do right. I am never under any temptation to do wrong! (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
A truly American sentiment recognizes the dignity of labor and the fact that honor lies in honest toil (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
Minds do not act together in public; they simply stick together; and when their private activities are resumed, they fly apart again (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
I know there is a Supreme Being who rules the affairs of men and whose goodness and mercy have always followed the American people, and I know He will not turn from us now if we humbly and reverently seek His powerful aid (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
Sensible and responsible women do not want to vote. The relative positions to be assumed by man and woman in the working out of our civilization were assigned long ago by a higher intelligence than ours (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
The lesson should be constantly enforced that though the people support the government, government should not support the people (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
A government for the people must depend for its success on the intelligence, the morality, the justice, and the interest of the people themselves (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
Public officers are the servants and agents of the people, to execute the laws which the people have made (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
The ship of democracy, which has weathered all storms, may sink through the mutiny of those on board (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
There is no calamity which a great nation can invite which equals that which follows a supine submission to wrong and injustice (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
He mocks the people who proposes that the government shall protect the rich and that they in turn will care for the laboring poor (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
I would rather the man who presents something for my consideration subject me to a zephyr of truth and a gentle breeze of responsibility rather than blow me down with a curtain of hot wind (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
In the scheme of our national government, the presidency is preeminently the people’s office (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
Once the coffers of the federal government are opened to the public, there will be no shutting them again (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
When more of the people’s sustenance is exacted through the form of taxation than is necessary to meet the just obligations of government and expenses of its economical administration, such exaction becomes ruthless extortion and a violation of the fundamental principles of free government (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
The lessons of paternalism ought to be unlearned and the better lesson taught that while the people should patriotically and cheerfully support their government, its functions do not include the support of the people (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
Unswerving loyalty to duty, constant devotion to truth, and a clear conscience will overcome every discouragement and surely lead the way to usefulness and high achievement (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
It is said that the quality of recent immigration is undesirable. The time is quite within recent memory when the same thing was said of immigrants who, with their descendants, are now numbered among our best citizens (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
The best results in the operation of a government wherein every citizen has a share largely depend upon a proper limitation of the purely partisan zeal and effort and a correct appreciation of the time when the heat of the partisan should be merged in the patriotism of the citizen... At this hour the animosities of political strife, the bitterness of partisan defeat, and the exultation of partisan triumph should be supplanted by an ungrudging acquiescence in the popular will and a sober, conscientious concern for the general weal... Public extravagance begets extravagance among the people (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
It is the responsibility of the citizens to support their government. It is not the responsibility of the government to support its citizens (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
Every citizen owes to the country a vigilant watch and close scrutiny of its public servants and a fair and reasonable estimate of their fidelity (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
The communism of combined wealth and capital, the outgrown of overweening cupidity and selfishness which assiduously undermines the justice and integrity of free institutions, is not less dangerous than the communism of oppressed poverty and toil which, exasperated by injustice and discontent, attacks with wide disorder the citadel of misrule (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
Officeholders are the agents of the people, not their masters. Not only is their time and labor due to the government, but they should scrupulously avoid in their political action, as well as in the discharge of their official duty, offending by a display of obtrusive partisanship their neighbors who have relations with them as public officials (Grover Cleveland Quotes)
