More quotes by Warren G. Harding

Warren G. Harding

Warren G. Harding
Actually, we're just glorified flagpole sitters.
Warren G. Harding
I knew that this job would be too much for me.
Warren G. Harding
Treat your friend as if he will one day be your enemy, and your enemy as if he will one day be your friend
Warren G. Harding
There is something inherently wrong, something out of accord with the ideals of representative democracy, when one portion of our citizenship turns its activities to private gain amid defensive war while another is fighting, sacrificing, or dying for national preservation.
Warren G. Harding
It is my conviction that the fundamental trouble with the people of the United States is that they have gotten too far away from Almighty God.
Warren G. Harding
Less government in business and more business in government.
Warren G. Harding
I expect it is very possible that I would make as good a President as a great many men who are talked of for that position.
Warren G. Harding
I hurt with the insatiate longing, until I feel that there will never be any relief until I take a long, deep, wild draught on your lips.
