No man, however strong, can serve ten years as schoolmaster, priest, or Senator, and remain fit for anything else.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
In my opinion eight years as president is enough and sometimes too much for any man to serve in that capacity.
There are so many societies, so many churches, so many -isms, that it is almost impossible for an independent man to succeed in a political career.
I briefly thought of becoming a priest but quickly saw that would be ridiculous.
You can only govern men by serving them. The rule is without exception.
I'd have no problem serving under any president.
In order to become the master, the politician poses as the servant.
Be assured that, as certain as Congress transcends its assigned limits and usurps powers never conferred, or stretches those conferred beyond the proper limits, so surely will the fruits of its usurpation pass into the hands of the Executive. In seeking to become master, it but makes a master in the person of the President.
I think it's possible to have a conservative serve in a cardinal position, a subcommittee chair position, and be very effective.
One good schoolmaster is of more use than a hundred priests.
It is a great privilege for any man to become a member of the Senate.
