More quotes by Warren G. Harding
I knew that this job would be too much for me.
Warren G. Harding
I continued with whatever 'qualified climbers' I could con into this rather unpromising venture.
Warren G. Harding
I don't know what to do or where to turn in this taxation matter. Somewhere there must be a book that tells all about it, where I could go to straighten it out in my mind. But I don't know where the book is, and maybe I couldn't read it if I found it.
Warren G. Harding
My once-keen analytical mind has become so dulled by endless hours of baking in the hot sun, thrashing about in tight chimneys, pulling at impossibly heavy loads, freezing my ass off.... so that now my mental state is comparable to that of a Peruvian Indian, well stoked on coca leaves.
Warren G. Harding
The black man should seek to be, and he should be encouraged to be, the best possible black man and not the best possible imitation of a white man.
Warren G. Harding
There is no relationship here between Church and State. Religious liberty has its unalterable place, along with civil and human liberty, in the very foundation of the Republic. I hold it [religious intolerance] to be a menace to the very liberties which we boast and cherish.
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
I couldn't catch a ball or any of that stuff. I could do only what required brute stupidity.
Warren G. Harding
We need citizens who are less concerned about what their government can do for them, and more concerned about what they can do for the nation.
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
Let the black man vote when he is fit to vote prohibit the white man voting when he is unfit to vote.
Warren G. Harding
I was spent up. I sure grabbed that girl of mine.
Warren G. Harding
Screwing is more enjoyable than drilling bolt holes !.
Warren G. Harding
I don't know much about Americanism, but it's a damn good word with which to carry an election.
Warren G. Harding
The success of our popular government rests wholly upon the correct interpretation of the deliberate, intelligent, dependable popular will of America.
Warren G. Harding
It is impossible for one who has studied at all the services of the Hebrew people to avoid the faith that they will one day be restored to their historic national home and there enter on a new and yet greater phase of their contribution to the advance of humanity.
Warren G. Harding
Actually, we're just glorified flagpole sitters.
Warren G. Harding
In the experiences of a year of the Presidency, there has come to me no other such unwelcome impression as the manifest religious intolerance which exists among many of our citizens. I hold it to be a menace to the very liberties we boast and cherish.
Warren G. Harding
We must proceed with a full realization that no statute enacted by man can repeal the inexorable laws of nature.
Warren G. Harding
Ambition is a commendable attribute, without which no man succeeds. Only inconsiderate ambition imperils.
Warren G. Harding
