Bill Vaughan
There are people in many other states who are cheering us.
Bill Vaughan
The faith in reason insists that the poverty of democracy offers a greater hope for mankind than the prosperity that attaches itself to aristocracy or despotism.

A covetous man's penny is a stone.
Bill Vaughan
A man's penmanship is an unfailing index of his character, moral and mental, and a criterion by which to judge his peculiarities of taste and sentiments.
