Zitat des Tages von Sam Rayburn:
You'll never get mixed up if you simply tell the truth. Then you don't have to remember what you have said, and you never forget what you have said.
You cannot be a leader, and ask other people to follow you, unless you know how to follow, too.
A jackass can kick a barn down, but it takes a carpenter to build one.
Do not wait for extraordinary circumstances to do good action; try to use ordinary situations.
I like power and I like to use it.
No one has a finer command of language than the person who keeps his mouth shut.
The real actor has a direct line to the collective heart.
A damn independent boy; independent as a hog on ice.
When you get too big a majority, you're immediately in trouble.'
If a man has common sense, he has all the sense there is.
If you want to get along, go along.
Son, always tell the truth. Then you'll never have to remember what you said the last time.
