A selfish man is a thief.

He who uses the office he owes to the voters wrongfully and against them is a thief.

The first duty of a man is to think for himself

He who receives money in trust to administer for the benefit of its owner, and uses it either for his own interest or against the wishes of its rightful owner, is a thief.

Liberty is the right of every man to be honest, to think and to speak without hypocrisy.

Every human being has within him an ideal man, just as every piece of marble contains in a rough state a statue as beautiful as the one that Praxiteles the Greek made of the god Apollo.
