Never argue with a man whose job depends on not being convinced.

All successful newpapers are ceaselessly querulous and bellicose. They never defend anyone or anything if they can help it; if the job is forced upon them, they tackle it by denouncing someone or something else.

No one hates his job so heartily as a farmer.

The only way that a government can provide for jobs for all citizens is by deciding what every man should do.

It is [a politician's] business to get and hold his job at all costs. If he can hold it by lying, he will hold it by lying; if lying peters out, he will try to hold it by embracing new truths. His ear is ever close to the ground.

Is it hot in the rolling mill? Are the hours long? Is $15 a day not enough? Then escape is easy. Simply throw up your job, spit on your hands, and write another "Rosenkavailer."

Nothing is so abject and pathetic as a politician who has lost his job, save only a retired stud-horse.
