Grover Cleveland
Your every voter, as surely as your chief magistrate, exercises a public trust.
Grover Cleveland
No investment on earth is so safe, so sure, so certain to enrich its owners as undeveloped realty. I always advise my friends to place their savings in realty near a growing city. There is no such savings bank anywhere.
Grover Cleveland
It is the responsibility of the citizens to support their government. It is not the responsibility of the government to support its citizens.
Grover Cleveland
Good ball players make good citizens.
Grover Cleveland
No man has ever yet been hanged for breaking the spirit of a law.
