James A. Garfield

History is philosophy teaching by example, and also warning; its two eyes are geography and chronology.

Be fit for more than the thing you are now doing. Let everyone know that you have a reserve in yourself; that you have more power than you are now using. If you are not too large for the place you occupy, you are too small for it.

A pound of pluck is worth a ton of luck.
James A. Garfield - July 12, 1880
Next in importance to freedom and justice is popular education, without which neither freedom nor justice can be permanently maintained.

A pound of pluck is worth a ton of luck.

- James A. Garfield
