Warren Harding: 'We must return to normalcy.'

Normalcy was not a word. The word he wanted was normality. Normalcy has since become a word due to Harding's mistake.

“The home is where wings take dream.”

“Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, uh three times, well, can’t get fooled again.”

George W. Bush was a treasure.

Mayor Daley (Sr) of Chicago, during the Democratic Convention riots of 1968 (where he famously authorized the police to "shoot to kill" looters!), addressing the press about police brutality:

"The police are not here to create disorder, the police are here to preserve disorder"! (I think that was a jumble of the Chicago Police Motto “We Serve and Protect.”)

"There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again."
