David McCullough
“Harry Truman used to talk of Potomac Fever, an endemic disorder the symptoms of which were a swelled head and a general decline of common sense.”
David McCullough, Brave Companions: Portraits in History

Winston Churchill
“He has the gift of compressing the largest amount of words into the smallest amount of thoughts.”
Winston Churchill

George Bernard Shaw
“At the end of six months you shall go to Buckingham Palace in a carriage, beautifully dressed. If the King finds out you're not a lady, you will be taken by the police to the Tower of London, where your head will be cut off as a warning to other presumptuous flower girls. If you are not found out, you shall have a present of seven-and-sixpence to start life with as a lady in a shop. If you refuse this offer you will be a most ungrateful wicked girl; and the angels will weep for you.”
George Bernard Shaw, Pigmalión

F. Scott Fitzgerald
“Americans, while occasionally willing to be serfs, have always been obstinate about being peasantry.”
F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr.
“There are times when we need education in the obvious more than investigation of the obscure.”
Oliver Wendall Holmes
