You will find that the truth is often unpopular and the contest between agreeable fancy and disagreeable fact is unequal. For, in the vernacular, we Americans are suckers for good news.
Adlai E. Stevenson
We have confused the free with the free and easy.
Adlai E. Stevenson
There is...a spiritual hunger in the world today and it cannot be satisfied...by better cars on longer credit terms.
