James A. Garfield - Ideas control the world

• "All free governments are managed by the combined wisdom and folly of the people."
• "Few men in our history have ever obtained the Presidency by planning to obtain it."
• "He who controls the money supply of a nation controls the nation."
• "I love to deal with doctrines and events. The contests of men about men I greatly dislike."
• "I mean to make myself a man, and if I succeed in that, I shall succeed in everything else."
• "Ideas are the great warriors of the world, and a war that has no idea behind it, is simply a brutality."
• "Ideas control the world."
