More quotes by William Jennings Bryan
Anglo-Saxon civilization has taught the individual to protect his own rights American civilization will teach him to respect the rights of others.
William Jennings Bryan
Patriotism is a mystery-intangible, invisible, and yet eternal.
William Jennings Bryan
The essence of patriotism lies in a willingness to sacrifice for one's country, just as true greatness finds expression, not in blessings enjoyed, but in good bestowed.
William Jennings Bryan
When I find a man who is not willing to pay his share of the burden of the government which protects him, I find a man who is unworthy to enjoy the blessings of a government like ours.
William Jennings Bryan
Love makes money-grabbing seem contemptible love makes class prejudice impossible love makes selfish ambition a thing to be despised love converts enemies into friends.
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
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
Greed is at the bottom of most of the wrong-doing with which government has to deal.
William Jennings Bryan

William Jennings Bryan
I hope the two wings of the Democratic Party may flap together.
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
This is not a contest between persons. The humblest citizen in all the land, when clad in the armor of a righteous cause, is stronger than all the hosts of error. I come to you in defense of a cause as holy as the cause of liberty - the cause of humanity.
William Jennings Bryan
Principles are eternal.
William Jennings Bryan
A belief in God is fundamental upon it rest the influences that control life.
William Jennings Bryan
All the ills from which America suffers can be traced back to the teaching of evolution. It would be better to destroy every other book ever written, and save just the first three verses of Genesis.
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
New York is the city of privilege. Here is the seat of the Invisible Power represented by the allied forces of finance and industry. This Invisible Government is reactionary, sinister, unscrupulous, mercenary, and sordid. It is wanting in national ideals and devoid of conscience... This kind of government must be scourged and destroyed.
William Jennings Bryan
If matter mute and inanimate, though changed by the forces of Nature into a multitude of forms, can never die, will the spirit of man suffer annihilation when it has paid a brief visit, like a royal guest, to this tenement of clay?
William Jennings Bryan
An orator is a man who says what he thinks and feels what he says.
William Jennings Bryan
Wars are sometimes waged to extend trade-the blood of many being shed to enrich a few.
