Nothing you do in the White House matters. You know why not?

Guilt upon the conscience, like rust upon iron, both defiles

Guilt upon the conscience, like rust upon iron, both defiles and consumes it, gnawing and creeping into it, as that does which at last eats out the very heart and substance of the metal.
