I am afraid I am a constant disappointment to my party. The fact of the matter is, the longer I am president the less of a party man I seem to become.
From William Howard Taft
Presidents come and go, but the Supreme Court goes on forever.
I have come to the conclusion that the major part of the work of a President is to increase the gate receipts of expositions and fairs and bring tourists to town.
A government is for the benefit of all the people.
Don't write so that you can be understood, write so that you can't be misunderstood.
No tendency is quite so strong in human nature as the desire to lay down rules of conduct for other people.
I am president now, and tired of being kicked around.
No, the only things which do not bother me are the elements. I can overcome them without a fight. All one has to do to get the best of the elements is to stand pat and one will win.
Politics makes me sick.
We are all imperfect. We can not expect perfect government.
