See they conducted experiments on convicts ... I don't know on what grounds they reason a man in jail is a bigger liar than one out of jail ... The chances are telling the truth is what got him there ... It would be a big aid to humanity, but it will never be, for already the politicians are up in arms against it ... It would wreck the very foundation on which our political government is run ... If you ever injected truth into politics you'd have no politics.
You can't say that civilization don't advance, however, for in every war they kill you in a new way.
The money was all appropriated for the top in the hopes that it would trickle down to the needy. Mr. Hoover was an engineer. He knew that water trickled down. Put it uphill and let it go and it will reach the dryest little spot. But he dident know that money trickled up. Give it to the people at the bottom and the people at the top will have it before night anyhow. But it will at least have passed through the poor fellow’s hands. They saved the big banks but the little ones went up the flue.
This country has come to feel the same when Congress is in session as when the baby gets hold of a hammer
Sure must be a great consolation to the poor people who lost their stock in the late crash to know that it has fallen in the hands of Mr. Rockefeller, who will take care of it and see it has a good home and never be allowed to wander around unprotected again. There is one rule that works in every calamity. Be it pestilence, war, or famine, the rich get richer and poor get poorer. The poor even help arrange it.
Our constitution protects aliens, drunks, and U. S. Senators. There ought to be one day (just one) when there is open season on senators.
Personally, I have always felt the best doctor in the world is the veterinarian. He can't ask his patients what is the matter — he's got to just know.
There's no trick to being a humorist when you have the whole government working for you.
What the country needs is dirtier fingernails and cleaner minds.
Ten men in our country could buy the whole world and ten million can't buy enough to eat.
I have no Politics. I am for the Party that is out of Power, no matter which one it is. But I will give you my word that, in case of my appointment, I will not be a Republican.
If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went.
There are two theories to arguing with a woman. Neither works.
All I know is just what I read in the papers, and that's an alibi for my ignorance.
The short memories of the American voters is what keeps our politicians in office.
A fool and his money are soon elected.
Lead your life so you wouldn't be ashamed to sell the family parrot to the town gossip.

We will never have true civilization until we have learned to recognize the rights of others.
I am not a member of any organized party — I am a Democrat.
Never miss a good chance to shut up.
Always drink upstream from the herd.
There are three kinds of men: The ones that learns by reading. The few who learn by observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence for themselves.
That's one thing about Republican Presidents. They never went in much for plans. They only had one plan. It says "Boys, my head is turned. Just get it while you can."
