“I would just say it's not good for the country to have 11 million people here who we don't know who they are, where they're living. They're not paying taxes, but they're showing up in emergency rooms. They're driving up the cost of auto insurance 'cause they don't have driver's licenses and are getting into accidents. They're having children, which are US citizens.

“Pride can go without domestics, without fine clothes, can live in a house with two rooms, can eat potato, purslain, beans, lyed corn, can work on the soil, can travel afoot, can talk with poor men, or sit silent well contented with fine saloons. But vanity costs money, labor, horses, men, women, health and peace, and is still nothing at last; a long way leading nowhere.--Only one drawback; proud people are intolerably selfish, and the vain are gentle and giving.” PeopleMenWayGivingWellsLongStillsTwoLastsHousePoorRoomsPrideFineProudCostClothesLaborHorseSilentSelfishVanityVainGentleSoilPotatoesLong WayCornMen WomenBeansPoor ManDrawbacksSaloons Book:Nature - Conduct of Life Source: Nature - Conduct of Life
