“There is something to be said for government by a great aristocracy which has furnished leaders to the nation in peace and war for generations; even a democrat like myself must admit this. But there is absolutely nothing to be said for government by a plutocracy, for government by men very powerful in certain lines and gifted with the money touch, but with ideals which in their essence are merely those of so many glorified pawnbrokers.” MenSaidWarGovernmentCertainNationsPeaceLinesPowerfulLeaderGenerationsIdealsEssenceDemocratGiftedVery PowerfulAbsolutely NothingAristocracyPlutocracy Book:The days of Armageddon, 1900-1914 Source: The days of Armageddon, 1900-1914
“I dont believe in labels. I want to do the best I can, all the time. I want to be progressive without getting both feet off the ground at the same time. I want to be prudent without having my mind closed to anything that is new or different.

“When the Democrats are attacked for [inciting class warfare] they shrink back. They don't say what obviously should be said, "Yes, there is class warfare. There has always been class warfare in this country." The reason the Democrats shrink back is because the Democrats and the Republicans are on the same side of the class war.
