Monson I believe more follies are committed out of complaisance to the world, than in following our own inclinations.~ Mary Wortley Montagu A lie will easily get you out of a scrape, and yet, strangely and beautifully, rapture possesses you when you have taken the scrape and left out the lie.~ Charles Edward Montague I have had more trouble with myself than with any other man I have ever met.~ Dwight Lyman Moody Sitting here, we are not at liberty to add one jot of power to the national government beyond what the people have granted by the constitution; and, on the other hand, we are bound to support that constitution as it stands, and to give a fair and rational scope to all the powers which it clearly contains.~ Houston v. Moore The means prepare the end, and the end is what the means have made of it.~ John Viscount Morley No man can climb out beyond the limitations of his own character.~ John Viscount Morley Corruption and some other offenses ought to be impeachable, but the cases ought to be enumerated and defined.~ Gouverneur Morris If you think there is freedom of the press in the United States, I tell you there is no freedom of the press... They come out with the cheap shot. The press should be ashamed of itself. They should come to both sides of the issue and hear both sides and let the American people make up their minds.~ Bill Moyers The single most exciting thing you encounter in government is competence, because it's so rare.~ Daniel Patrick Moynihan The courts are not bound by mere forms, nor are they to be misled by mere pretences. They are at liberty — indeed, are under a solemn duty — to look at the substance of things, whenever they enter upon the inquiry whether the legislature has transcended the limits of its authority. If therefore, a statute purporting to have been enacted to protect the public health, the public morals, or the public safety, has no real or substantial relation to those objects, or is a palpable invasion of rights secured by the fundamental law, it is the duty of the courts to so adjudge, and thereby give effect to the Constitution.~ Mugler v. Kansas Conscience is that still, small voice that is sometimes too loud for comfort.~ Bert Murray There is only one way to achieve happiness on this terrestrial ball, And that is to have either a clear conscience or none at all.~ Ogden Nash Fortune does not change men; it unmasks them.~ Suzanne Necker God grant me the courage not to give up what I think is right even though I think it is hopeless.~ Chester W. Nimitz These things I believe: That government should butt out. That government should butt out. That freedom is our most precious commodity and if we are not eternally vigilant, government will take it all away. That individual freedom demands individual responsibility. That government is not a necessary good but an unavoidable evil. That the executive branch has grown too strong, the judicial branch too arrogant and the legislative branch too stupid. That political parties have become close to meaningless. That government should work to insure the rights of the individual, not plot to take them away. That government should provide for the national defense and work to insure domestic tranquillity. That foreign trade should be fair rather than free. That America should be wary of foreign entanglements. That the tree of liberty needs to be watered from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. That guns do more than protect us from criminals; more importantly, they protect us from the ongoing threat of government. That states are the bulwark of our freedom. That states should have the right to secede from the Union. That once a year we should hang someone in government as an example to his fellows."~ Lyn Nofziger Where the meaning of the Constitution is clear and unambiguous, there can be no resort to construction to attribute to the founders a purpose or intent not manifest in its letter.~ Norris v.
