Taylor Caldwell
An honest politician is either a hypocrite - or he is doomed.
Taylor Caldwell

Taylor Caldwell
Money? I lost all taste for it.
Taylor Caldwell
I was never afraid of anything in the world except the dentist.
Taylor Caldwell
. . . a statement that is repugnant to one's beliefs can be as true as one that is pleasurable.
