If Truman hadn't published 'Answered Prayers' in parts, he'd have had the drive to finish it. The peacocks took it away from him.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Without prayer, without faith in the Almighty, the civil rights movement would have been like a bird without wings.
Well, you know what, I'm 60 years old, and I've been interested in politics since I was on my daddy's knee. During the 1948 election, we were praying for Truman. I know a lot about politics.
Did St. Francis preach to the birds? Whatever for? If he really liked birds he would have done better to preach to the cats.
I'm born into a family of preachers. So I want Mr. Trump to remember that many people who voted for him took a long time praying for him. And if he can take some of that divine guidance, that's going to help him out.
If God had wanted us to vote, he would have given us candidates.
No man ever prayed heartily without learning something.
The 1928 Republican Convention opened with a prayer. If the Lord can see His way clear to bless the Republican Party the way it's been carrying on, then the rest of us ought to get it without even asking.
I liked Truman very much. He was precise and businesslike. After a while, it was his turn.
Mr. Truman studiously avoided giving power to his White House staff that has been characteristic of recent administrations. Staff people in the White House, with no responsibility but incredible authority is one of the reasons we're now in so much trouble.
It was a privilege to pray with Governor Romney - for his family and our country.
