Millard Fillmore Quotes
May God save the country, for it is evident that the people will not.
I have not the advantage of a classical education, and no man should, in my judgment, accept a degree he cannot read.
An honorable defeat is better than a dishonorable victory.
He is miserable whose happiness ‘hangs on a prince’s favors,’ but he is not only wretched, but infinitely degraded whose means of support depends on the wild caprice of the ever-changing multitude.
I believe the Constitution is not a saltwater animal…it can live in fresh as in salt water.
The man who can look upon a crisis without being willing to offer himself upon the altar of his country is not fit for public trust.
It is a national disgrace that our Presidents, after having occupied the highest position in the country, should be cast adrift, and perhaps, be compelled to keep a corner grocery for subsistence.
I can hardly believe that any man born an American can possess other than an American heart.
It is not strange…to mistake change for progress.
