I Have A Congress On My Hands.

I Can Find No Warrant For Such An Appropriation In The Constitution, And I Do Not Believe That The Power And Duty Of The General Government Ought To Be Extended To The Relief Of Individual Suffering Which Is In No Manner Properly Related To The Public Service Or Benefit.

The Appointing Power Of The Pope Is Treated As A Public Trust, And Not As A Personal Perquisite.

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.

Sometimes I Wake At Night In The White House And Rub My Eyes And Wonder If It Is Not All A Dream.

Some Day I Will Be Better Remembered.
