To secure these ends is to secure reason and individuality, and to make these the predominant values of a democratic society.”

“I am not here to pass civilities or compliments with you, but on other business. I have stood your meanness as long as I intend to.

“From the circumstances of my position, I was often thrown into the society of horse-racers, card-players, fox-hunters, scientific and professional men, and of dignified men; and many a time have I asked myself, in the enthusiastic moment of the death of a fox, the victory of a favorite horse, the issue of a question eloquently argued at the bar, or in the great council of the nation, well, which of these kinds of reputation should I prefer? That of a horse-jockey, a fox-hunter, an orator, or the honest advocate of my country's rights?”
