I hate politics and what are considered their appropriate measures. I hate notoriety, public meetings, public speeches, caucuses and everything that I know of which is apparently the necessary incident of politics - except doing public work to the best of my ability.More John Abbott quotes [03/29/2018 05:03:36]

He who loathes war, and will do everything in his power to avert it, but who will, in the last extremity, encounter its perils, from love of country and of home--who is willing to sacrifice himself and all that is dear to him in life, to promote the well-being of his fellow-man, will ever receive a worthy homage.More John Abbott quotes [03/29/2018 05:03:36]

Every man's ability may be strengthened or increased by culture.More John Abbott quotes [09/22/2011 06:09:07]
