Public officers are the servants and agents of the people, to execute the laws which the people have made.

Unswerving loyalty to duty, constant devotion to truth, and a clear conscience will overcome every discouragement and surely lead the way to usefulness and high achievement.

Though the people support the government; the government should not support the people.

Your every voter, as surely as your chief magistrate, exercises a public trust.

It is the responsibility of the citizens to support their government. It is not the responsibility of the government to support its citizens.

Once the coffers of the federal government are opened to the public, there will be no shutting them again.
