There are worse things than losing an election; the worst thing is to lose one's convictions and not tell the people the truth.

Adlai Stevenson

But whether it be dream or truth, to do well is what matters. If it be truth, for truth's sake. If not, then to gain friends for the time when we awaken.

Pedro Calderon de la Barca

Faith may be defined briefly as an illogical belief in the occurrence of the improbable.

H. L. Mencken

There's something about a Christmas sweater that will always make me laugh.
