More quotes by William Jennings Bryan
Evolution seems to close the heart to some of the plainest spiritual truths while it opens the mind to the wildest guesses advanced in the name of science.
William Jennings Bryan
The Imperial German Government will not expect the Government of the United States to omit any word or any act necessary to the performance of its sacred duty of maintaining the rights of the United States and its citizens and of safeguarding their free exercise and enjoyment.
William Jennings Bryan
The people of Nebraska are for free silver and I am for free silver. I will look up the arguments later.
William Jennings Bryan
If we steal a man's purse we are thieves. If we steal twelve hundred islands we are patriots. If you steal a man's money you will be sent to the penitentiary. If you steal his liberty you will be sent to the White House.
William Jennings Bryan
The Rock of Ages is more important than the age of rocks.
William Jennings Bryan

William Jennings Bryan

William Jennings Bryan
I hope the two wings of the Democratic Party may flap together.
William Jennings Bryan
A corporation has no rights except those given it by law. It can exercise no power except that conferred upon it by the people through legislation, and the people should be as free to withhold as to give, public interest and not private advantage being the end in view.
William Jennings Bryan
None so little enjoy themselves, and are such burdens to themselves, as those who have nothing to do. Only the active have the true relish of life.
William Jennings Bryan
You shall not press down upon the brow of labor this crown of thorns you shall not crucify mankind upon a cross of gold.
William Jennings Bryan
The wisdom of the Bible writers is more than human the prophecies proclaim a Supreme Ruler who, though inhabiting all space, deigns to speak through the hearts and minds and tongues of His children.
William Jennings Bryan
Next to the ministry I know of no more noble profession than the law. The object aimed at is justice, equal and exact, and if it does not reach that end at once it is because the stream is diverted by selfishness or checked by ignorance. Its principles ennoble and its practice elevates.
William Jennings Bryan
A man who murders another shortens by a few brief years the life of a human being but he who votes to increase the burden of debts upon the people of the United States assumes a graver responsibility.
William Jennings Bryan
Selfish interest is one of the most common obstructions to the advance of truth.
William Jennings Bryan
Never be afraid to stand with the minority when the minority is right, for the minority which is right will one day be the majority.
William Jennings Bryan
No greater victory can be won by citizens or soldiers than to transform temporary foes into permanent friends.
William Jennings Bryan
When we advocate a thing which we believe will be successful we are not compelled to raise a doubt as to our own sincerity by trying to show what we will do if we are wrong.
William Jennings Bryan
Our government conceived in freedom and purchased with blood can be preserved only by constant vigilance.
William Jennings Bryan
