From the Nov 3, 1907 NYT :

Lots of us won't listen to advice unless we are giving it.

True dignity doesn't stop at a frock coat and a high hat.

Enthusiasm doesn't accomplish much without a certain amount of hustle.

In politics it's the man who sells his vote who is corrupt, not the man who buys it.

Many a man secures a place in history as an also-ran.

Another list of quips from the same issue:

Graft and the world grafts with you.

Silence might be golden but you can't always convert it into cash.

A man has to have a certain amount of wisdom to realize what a fool he is.
